A stunning new edition of this tantalizing tale of Lyra and Pan set in the world of His Dark Materials. Now with full-color illustrations from Chris Wormell. A perfect gift for Pullman fans. This exciting companion to His Dark Materials tells a not-to-be-missed story about Lyra in the years after the events of The Amber Spyglass. When a witch's daemon crashes onto the roof of Jordan College, Lyra and her daemon, Pan, are eager to help. But as this unlikely trio scours the winding streets of Oxford in search of a famed alchemist, their journey takes a deadly turn... Newly illustrated in full color by renowned print-maker Chris Wormell, this edition is a wonderfully gift-worthy production with foil, embossing, and a place-marker ribbon.

Note to self: Don't start reading a series with book 3.5.
Brief, enjoyable addition to His Dark Materials / Book of Dust. I reread it shortly after finishing La Belle Sauvage. The other short stories Once Upon a Time in the North and The Collectors are also good, but this is the only one featuring Lyra.
It was ok. Not a great story. Nice to know Lyra is doing okay. Really excited about the map, though.
