Darwinian : 16 is legal, so if you wanna pound a 16 year old go for it.
Phillip Pullman is awesome, His dark materials is a wicked series.

As for the books, they are all pretty much awful in my opinion, with the notable exceptions of 3 and 7. They got me into the fantasy genre, but there are so many better writers out there, from Philip Pullman to Paul Stewart to Terry Pratchett. I think PoA was great because it drifted substantially from the "Harry goes to Hogwarts, gets into trouble, saves the day" to "Harry goes to Hogwarts, finds out more about his past, meets his godfather, oh no everything has gone wrong at the very end". Same with the last book; everything turns out alright, but the entire plot is different from any of the other books (to be honest, I was getting tired of Hogwarts).
