No, no Grendel. Beowulf has passed me by in life strangely. The only encounter I've had with him is that Star Trek Voyager episode where Harry's playing the Beowulf game.

I was soooo disappointed with The Golden Compass - just the fact they changed the name from Northern Lights got up my nose. I think it would look great as a dark animation like ... um ... have you seen the animated version of Dante's Inferno? Or maybe some of the Animatrix cartoons. And no they never made The Subtle Knife.

I've read tons of Andrews' books. They were very "in" when I started high school. I really enjoyed My Sweet Audrina and just found out that they made a movie of that one to.
