Have you read Northern Lights/The Golden Compass yet?  If not, read it 
first.  If yes, the best hook I can give you is to tell you Lyra and 
Pantalaimon will show up soon.  It took me awhile to get into Subtle 
Knife and Will's character.

For those seeking an HDM discussion group, look up at your URL, erase 
HPFGU and everything to the right of it, and replace it with 
darkmaterial.

I'm on that list but you won't hear me chiming in, because feeding my 
Harry Potter habit is a full-time job!  (Although I'm easily led into 
discussions of HDM, as you can tell.)
