In response to Margaret Denman-West's endorsement of the two Phillip Pullman books, I heartily agree. Both and <The Subtle Knife> are wonderfully imaginative and so richly detailed that each deserves a second reading.
As a long-time reader of fantasy and science fiction, I'd like to mention Garth Nix's , which has one of the strongest and most interesting heroines to come along in quite a long time. I enjoyed how Nix deals with the idea of death in new and unusual ways, and I particularly appreciated Sabriel's resourcefulness.
