! was thinking about Mr. de Ruyter, see.... And I put together the serpent and the crucible and the beehive, to ask how he's a getting on with his spying, and�" "Why them three symbols?" "Because I thought the serpent was cunning, like a spy ought to be, and the crucible could mean like knowledge, what you kind of distill, and the beehive was hard work, like bees are always working hard; so out of the hard work and the cunning comes the knowledge, see, and that's the spy's job; and I pointed to... them and I thought the question in my mind, and the needle stopped at death.... D'you think that could be really working, Farder Coram?" "It's working all right, Lyra. What we don't know is whether we're reading it right. That's a subtle art. I wonder if � " Before he could finish his sentence, there was an urgent knock at the door, and a young gyptian man came in.
"Beg pardon, Farder Coram, there's Jacob Huismans just come back, and he's sore wounded." "He was with Benjamin de Ruyter," said Farder Coram.

The book was an amazing read. The description does no justice to the book and it's author and I would like to request the admin to right this injustice and write a proper description befitting such an exemplary work of fiction.

Woow, the description up there.
Heck, are you sure that you've actually read the book? Sounds like to me that you didn't really grasp the concept of the plot. It's MEANT to be like that. Complicated and complex to you, maybe, (probably because you didn't understand some of the words in the book. Or do you need a picture book to actually understand this masterpiece? I didn't think so.) To me, it's quite simple to understand. I could list all of the most obvious things that happened in the story but I'm not willing to spoil the storyline to those who haven't read this beautifully written piece of work. So no.

Anyways, that person who wrote that description up there, I suggest you to re-read the story again. because it's quite obvious that you couldn't read tiny words stuffed in a big book (when you were in that age where you wrote that description.)

Besides, you should've written the description AFTER you've FINALLY understood the story else you would completely mislead readers the wrong way. Why the heck would you write a description about the story like you know about it even when you specifically said that you don't even understand it?

Of course you would think it as boring. Na-duh.

Anyways, the story's great in my opinion and I absolutely loved the setting. Read this book many times before and now re-reading it again just to pass the time. I recommend this to those who're hungry for a good piece of fantasy/sci-fic and could understand Shakespeare (unlike someone *cough *cough not saying who but it's really obvious *ahem*)

Anyways, toodles!

(That's my rant finished heh.)
