Our Dark Materials

[substitute]

I knew Philip Pullman was a fan of my dad's work; an interview with him that ended up in The Week caused some friendly interest and was much appreciated.

Apparently he's really, really a fan. Woo!

Wow, Pullman really sent up a white-hot flare for your dad right there.

You might want to tell your brother to put some
"Search at ABEBooks" / "Search at ISBN.nu" /
"Search at Amazon" / "Search at Powell's" links on
each of those
/~heiney/harris/*.html novel
pages. Hell, I'd code up the "insert this there" stuff if he wants.

I've read the pages on your dad (that you link to) a couple times since we've been lj friends. I really want to read his books. And I don't know why I haven't yet. But I'm reading Pullman now -- on the last of the trilogy -- so I think the time is right to afterwards progress to Harris.

I'm embarrassed to admit that after reading Yukiko and then The Balloonist when we were lads, I just sort of stopped. I think now, though, I'll go all Pullmanish and track down the rest. If I don't like them I'll punish you by trying to force upon you some of the cheesy thrillers my grandfather wrote. :-]
