Reviews"The book rollicks and careers with the narrative gale force we've come to expect.  Philip Pullman achieves effects that rival the best accomplishments of the earlier books.  In any given chapter Pullman offers more sensuous description and narrative brio than are found in most entire novels." --Starred review in The Horn Book

  • Beware! Damaged and old library books

    The very last line on their disclaimers is about library books. While I don’t mind that, any value is trashed with the taping and adhesive to the book and dust cover. They have so many disclaimers to negate any complaint. But I see you, and I won’t order from you again. Christmas present gone awry
