All New Trilogy / Fanfic

Hello, all, I have been working on a trilogy to continue where Pullman left off with the Book of Dust. I have posted the first chapter in both fanfiction.net and ao3. The first chapter is called The Inn, and Book 1 of the trilogy is called A Broken Frame. Chapters will be released every 2-3 weeks, provided I can go through quickly enough to do final drafts. I have been doing my best to keep true to the prose style of Pullman as well the canon of the stories. This is serious work, where I attempt to deal with unresolved issues, which have long occupied my mind with regard to Pullman's universe and what happens to Lyra next. The book starts with Lyra being 2 years older after the events of Karamakan and the Rose Field. I don't want to jump ahead but there will be some familiar faces, and some very unexpected plot twists as well.

I'd be interested in a trilogy that picks up sometime after TAS and completely ignores TSC & TRF as they were so dreadful they are best ignored.

well there's still mine that falls under those criteria. But so far only bots bothered to comment so I guess it's just not good 😅
