This book contains a story and several other things. The other
things might be connected with the story, or they might not; they
might be connected to stories that haven't appeared yet . . . Two
years after the conclusion of The Amber Spyglass, 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? Illustrated throughout with
exquisite wood-cut engravings by John Lawrence, this beautifully
packaged story also contains an extract of Pullman's second short
story set in the His Dark Materials world, Once Upon a Time in the
North, a map and other missives that seem to have slipped from
Lyra's world into our own.
