Query: I don't see how this book got such high ratings

This book doesn't deserve 5 stars. The beginning was good, but after that, it went downhill. When i first read it in 5th grade, i had nightmares for weeks because of what they do to the children. Now that i have forced myself to reread it, i found this book disturbing in more ways than one. I realized that "Daemon" is actually an alternat spelling of demon. If that is satonic, i don't know what is. The characters were poorly drawn and not well developed. The story line had good potential, but it was ruined by Pulmans aufull writing style. The only part i liked was when Lyra used the Golden Compass. That is pretty pathetic.
