So right now Lyra, Will and these 2 spies managed to get into the land of the dead. Lyra was forced to leave her daemon behind. To get to the land of the dead they must go in a boat which is rowed by an ancient man (sounds familiar). When they arrive at the gates of the land of the dead they encounter a harpy and Lyra is attacked by it when she lies to it. They manage to get in and they discover that the ghost are imprisoned there. All the dead people just stand they and do nothing for eternity. After a while they find Roger (the person Lyra was looking for). The group offer the harpies a job that they can't resist in exchange for the harpies to guide them to the highest point of the land of the dead so that Will can cut a window through into another world and set the dead free.
My Rating:
Why?
Because it is very interesting to hear what Pullman thinks that the world of the dead is like.
