I only have this to say about “His Dark Materials:” no matter one’s place on the religion/irreligion scale, I think all can admit that if you write almost three books building up your dimension-cutting knife as a god-killer and then don’t use it to kill god, you’ve written trash.

Having said god die by falling out of bed because he’s old and impotent might be smashing propaganda, but it’s bad storytelling. It wastes your readers’ time and reneges on the promise you’ve implicitly made to them. Say what you will about C. S. Lewis, but he never did THAT.
