You heard wrong. C. S. Lewis claimed that you can't create a believable fantasy world that didn't have a god figure in it. "His Dark Materials" is Philip Pullman's response to that claim. There is so little in common between the two that you may as well say there's nothing.
It's great as a fantasy, it's great as a coming of age story...
It's just plain great. I recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy and or coming of age stories at all. Read it, love it, read it again!
