Replying to @MorlockP
I wholly endorse John Wright's analysis that in the latter books he lets the chip on his shoulder override what the story needed. ...but, darn it, Golden Compass was just such a great adventure story. It deserved better sequels.

I believe his phrasing was that Pullman “forced his muse to play the harlot”, and I have never heard a more accurate description. The later books are haunted by the feeling that they should have been telling a much different and much better story.
