Embark on an extraordinary journey through realms of fantasy, intrigue, conflict, and romance with this exquisite gift collection of Philip Pullman's acclaimed His Dark Materials trilogy. This spellbinding set comprises all three captivating volumes: Northern Lights, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass.
In The Amber Spyglass, we find Lyra and Will forcibly parted, yet inexorably drawn together by forces beyond their comprehension. Their path leads to an unprecedented conflict and a voyage into the shadows from which none have returned.
Northern Lights introduces us to Lyra Belacqua, a spirited young girl who roams freely among Jordan College's scholars, accompanied always by her daemon companion. Her world is upended by the arrival of her formidable uncle, Lord Asriel, plunging her into a perilous struggle involving child-snatching Gobblers, powerful witch clans, and fearsome armoured bears.
The Subtle Knife transports Lyra to the haunting otherworld of Cittàgazze, where soul-devouring Spectres prowl and angelic wingbeats echo in the distance. Here, she encounters Will Parry, a boy on the run after a tragic incident. Together, they embark on a treacherous quest across multiple worlds, uncovering a weapon of unimaginable power and edging ever closer to a shattering revelation about their entwined destinies.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
