Lyra Silvertongue returns to the North in this brand new short story from master storyteller Philip Pullman, set in the world of His Dark Materials and The Book of Dust. Illustrated throughout by Tom Duxbury, Serpentine is a perfect gift for every Pullman fan, new and old. ‘Lyra Silvertongue, you’re very welcome . . . Yes, I know your new name. Serafina Pekkala told me everything about your exploits’ The events of His Dark Materials may lie behind them, but Lyra and her daemon Pantalaimon find that things are not exactly as they seem when they travel north to visit an old friend — and this snapshot of their forever-changed lives reveals more than either expected. A wonderful companion to The Book of Dust and the perfect re-entry point for fans of the series. ‘Pullman is an easeful storyteller and an intricate and inventive world-builder, and everything he has to write is worth reading’ The Telegraph ‘It’s a stunning achievement, the universe Pullman has created and continues to build on’ New York Times
