Thirty years after The Northern Lights was published, The Rose Field completes the Book of Dust and His Dark Materials

The Sheldonian Theatre

We’re delighted to be joined by Philip Pullman for a very special event to celebrate the publication of The Rose Field, the long-awaited and highly anticipated conclusion to The Book of Dust and His Dark Materials, and to Lyra Silvertongue’s story. Fans are invited to join us at the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford and come full circle as we return to Lyra’s home and where much of His Dark Materials and The Book of Dust is set, for this unmissable in conversation between Philip Pullman and Broadcaster and Podcaster, Hannah MacInnes. Attendees will also have an opportunity to submit their questions in advance.The Book of Dust Vol. 3: The Rose FieldWhen readers left Lyra in The Secret Commonwealth she was alone, in the ruins of a deserted city. Pantalaimon had run from her – part of himself – in search of her imagination, which he believed she had lost. Lyra travelled across the world from her Oxford home in search of her dæmon. And Malcolm, loyal Malcolm, too journeyed far from home, towards the Silk Roads in search of Lyra . . .In The Rose Field, their quests converge in the most dangerous, breathtaking and world-changing ways. They must take help from spies and thieves, gryphons and witches, old friends and new, learning all the while the depth and surprising truths of the alethiometer. All around them, the world is aflame – made terrifying by fear, power and greed.As they move East, towards the red building that will reunite them and give them answers – on Dust, on the special roses, on imagination – so too does the Magisterium, at war against all that Lyra holds dear.Please note: Philip will not be signing books on the day.
