Title: A bit of fun but not for serious HDM readers
Review: The story of 'Lyra and the birds' is fairly well written and does explain more about Lyras life after saying goodbye to Will. Unfortunately, though it is not particularly bad, it doesn't live up to the expectations readers of the His Dark Materials trilogy will have. It is simply a short story with a rough, vague ending. Most people reading the other books in the series will no doubt be good at reading (as they can be tough going sometimes)and this addition seems almost patronising.An ok book overall but if you wish to keep your opinions of Lyra and Will as they are left in the last book then I would discourage you from spending this much money.
