OP I am delighted to see that Philip Pullman is now getting the recognition he so richly deserves. His Dark Materials trilogy IMNAAHO knocks all the Harry Potter stuff into a cocked hat.
Author Philip Pullman's trilogy of fantasy novels, His Dark Materials, could be turned into a stage play in London.
The director of London's National Theatre, Nicholas Hytner, is in "advanced negotiations" to buy the stage rights to the books, which have been widely acclaimed and sold millions of copies around the world.
Mr Pullman was the first children's author to win the prestigious £30,000 Whitbread Prize when judges declared The Amber Spyglass, the final book in the trilogy, the best book of the year.
