I can see that S&A has more joie de vivre than GN but that may be because GN is the weakest of the 12. What about P&M? Is that less optimistic than S&A or just a little more subtle and grown up?

I think you're spot on. I always felt that GN was a bit dour, but that's just GN. However, PM is much more light hearted. It's my belief that this is due to the Ds, especially Dorothea, being AR's favourite characters. It seems to me that this is clear from the moment that he introduces them in WH, and especially clear after the Tall Dutchman skates up to a narration by Dot.
