Det har tagoit sin tid, men nu höjs Philip Pullman till skyarna fört sin nya
bok (del 1 i en tänkt trilogi):

"Philip Pullman's La Belle Sauvage hailed as 'a stunning achievement'
Philip Pullman's return to the world he created more than 20 years ago for His
Dark Materials has been greeted with eager delight by most critics.
The author's new book, La Belle Sauvage, arrives 17 years after the His Dark
Materials trilogy ended.
It is worth the wait, according to the Washington Post, while the Daily
Telegraph gave it a five-star review.
The New York Times praised a "stunning achievement" but had some reservations,
saying the novel "sometimes lags".
La Belle Sauvage is set a decade before Northern Lights (titled Golden Compass
in the US), the first book in the His Dark Materials trilogy, which was
published in 1995. ...
The Washington Post's Elizabeth Hand said the past 17 years disappeared "in a
blink as one reads the enthralling, enchanting first instalment".
"The first half of The Book of Dust reads like a thriller," she wrote. "The
story becomes darker, deeper and even more engrossing when a cataclysmic flood
overtakes southern England."
Bonneville was "one of the most frightening villains in contemporary
literature", and the new book felt "more earthbound - in the best way - than
the earlier trilogy".
Hand added: "Too few things in our own world are worth a 17-year-wait: The Book
of Dust is one of them."
