Garth Nix/Philip Pullman

[Gabriela]

Hello everybody. I have been on this list for almost 2 years and I 
think this is the sixth or seventh time I post. Well, I am de-
lurking here because I want to know about Garth Nix's Keys to the 
Kingdom series or The Seventh Tower series. Have any of you read 
them? I read the Sabriel trilogy which I liked a lot and I would 
like to know if Nix's other series are as good. Any recommendations 
would be appreciated.

I just finished reading His Dark Materials and I have to say that I 
regret not having read those books before; it took me a long time to 
decide to read them and now I am glad I did (the bright side of this 
is that I didn't have to wait for any of the books of the trilogy to 
be published *grin*) I know that a lot of people here have read 
Philip Pullman and I was wondering if the Sally Lockhart books are 
as wonderful as HDM. What about Lyra's Oxford? (I think that one 
came after HDM). Again, if any of you could tell me about these 
authors' work I would appreciate it.
