    No, but one came close

    The last book of the 'his dark materials' trilogy by Phillip Pullman called 'the amber spyglass' which was so sad. But you must read it.

    The first one is called 'Northern Lights' and it was adapted into a film called 'the golden compass' but dont bother with that just read the books.

    I have the film on DVD - it has the most abrupt ending, I can't remember much though so I'll proabbly still read the books if I have time.
