His Dark Materials: Serpentine
His Dark Materials: Serpentine | Philip Pullman
2 posts | 5 read
This companion to His Dark Materials and The Book of Dust offers a tantalizing new glimpse of Lyra and her dæmon, Pantalaimon. The world-changing events of The Amber Spyglass are behind them, and Lyra and Pan find themselves utterly changed as well. In Serpentine, they journey to the far North once more, hoping to ask the Consul of Witches a most urgent question. This brand-new story, a beguiling must-read for Pullman fans old and new, is a perfect companion to His Dark Materials and a fascinating bridge to The Book of Dust.

Part of the pleasure of reading this book lies in the aesthetic...the tiny hardcover has a beautiful cover; the woodcut-style illustrations are lovely and charming. The story is quite sad for those of us who have read The Secret Commonwealth, and sort of foreshadowy for those who have not. It's always nice to go back into Lyra's world and see what's going on with Lyra and Pan.

After reading, the Secret Commonwealth, this little story was both heartwarming and hopeful.
