In 2004, he was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

It has recently been announced that The Book of Dust, the much anticipated new book from Mr. Pullman, also set in the world of His Dark Materials, will be published as a major work in three parts, with the first part to arrive in October 2017.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dopo His Dark Materials ci vuole Sally Lockhart
Reviewed in Italy on 15 July 2017
Verified Purchase
Dopo His Dark Materials ci vuole Sally Lockhart. Se avete già completato la trilogia e volete continuare a leggere Pullman, è sicuramente piacevole anche se meno stimolante rispetto ai precedenti. Attenzione la lettura sarà più difficile per lo slang e le parle tipiche di un'altra epoca (1800) che vi richiederà spesso di ricorrere al vocabolario. Un inglese non pulito e poco didattico, che richiede un buon livello di padronanza della lingua per essere godibile.
