The last volume in The Book of Dust trilogy has hit the shelves and chronicles heroine Lyra Belacqua’s continuing adventurous quest in search of her beloved.
The Rose Field illuminates British author Philip Pullman’s world of fantasy as Lyra, alone in a city haunted by ‘daemons’, searches for Pan, following the trail of roses said to hold the secret of the Rusakov particles or Dust – the mysterious subatomic substance attracted to consciousness.
The ‘breathtaking’ conclusion showcases Philip’s storytelling prowess, while addressing perhaps one of the oldest philosophical questions of all time: are we matter? Or are we spirit and matter?
The Rose Field is preceded by La Belle Sauvage (2017) and The Secret Commonwealth (2019).
