The author sounds like an interesting fellow! randomhouse.com "Philip Pullman believes firmly in the virtues of healthy exercise and a moderate diet - for other people. It makes them feel virtuous, and makes them feel good if not happy. The most exercise he normally takes is unscrewing the top of the whisky bottle. If he liked the taste of tobacco, he would smoke vigorously. He is fond of sport, and plays it by watching television. He is a big fan of Neighbours, but that is the only soap he watches, as Neighbours gives him quite enough to think about." The last trilogy I read was probably Donaldson. I loved those books because he was an English master and the language was extraordinary. "His Dark Materials" sounds like a must read! Not "God is dead"--but "God is senile!" Thanks for that info.
