A full-colour beautiful gift edition of this magical story featuring Lyra and Pan, set in the world of Philip Pullman’s ground-breaking His Dark Materials<\/i> and The Book of Dust.<\/i> Illustrated for the first time by Chris Wormell.<\/p>\n
Two years after the events of His Dark Materials<\/i>, Lyra and her daemon Pantalaimon sit high on the roof of Jordan College, gazing down on the streets of Oxford. But their peace is shattered by a flock of enraged starlings, who seem intent on knocking another bird out of the sky – a bird that Lyra and Pan quickly realise is a witch’s daemon. The daemon carries worrying tidings of a terrible sickness spreading in the north, and claims that only Lyra can help him – but is he really friend, or foe?<\/p>\n
Illustrated throughout for the first time by Chris Wormell, this is the perfect gift for Pullman fans old and new.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
