First impression of the true first edition, with the complete number-string sequence 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 on the printer's page. This is the special edition, with an additional Chris Wormell illustration, and yellow sprayed edges to the page block. ***A very good copy in dark-grey paper-covered boards, with metallic-red titles to the spine and decorated with metallic-red stardust decorations to the boards, and an extract from the book on the front board. The boards are clean and unmarked, but there is some creasing to the lower part of the spine where the thin paper covering has been compressed, and a light vertical reading crease to the spine (please see scans). Corners sharp. Slight reading lean to the binding with the page block slightly pushed away from the spine. Page block edges sprayed yellow by the publisher - clean without foxing. Internally also very good with no inscriptions. No creases or tears. Paper stock clean. ***In a very good colour illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £25.00. The dustwrapper has no significant faults - bright and clean with no fading. Just some light creasing to the lower edge of the spine. ***622 pages plus a single page of acknowledgements at the back of the book. 240mm x 160mm. ***'Tell me what's in the red building / in the desert of Karamakan. / The building the roses come from. / ---an opening into another world--- / The world where the roses come from? / ---they could come from nowhere else--- (Quote taken from the front board). ***'Lyra Silvertongue is far from her Oxford home, searchinf for her daemon, Pantalaimon, and the imagination he fears she has lost. Malcolm Polstead, the loyal unlikely hero of Lyra's past, has also journeyed across the world, in search of her.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***First impression of the true first edition. A very good copy of the third volume in the Book of Dust trilogy - the special edition with extra illustration. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…

The long-awaited and highly anticipated conclusion to Philip Pullman’s bestselling The Book of Dust sequence . . .
Shortlisted for Book of the Year & Audiobook of the Year at The British Book Awards 2026
‘A masterpiece for all eternity… Powerful, profound and utterly unforgettable: a stunning trilogy conclusion.’ - The Telegraph
‘Pullman’s uncanny ability to conjure place is once again in full evidence . . . And when we reach it, the novel’s final showdown is a fantastically nail-biting ride.’ - The Guardian
‘But for all its intricate interweavings of alchemy and folk tales, ballads and poetry, the book has the pacing of a thriller.’ - The Times
‘Lyra: what will you do when you find this place in the desert, the opening to the world of the roses?’
‘Defend it,’ Lyra said. ‘Die defending it.’
When readers left Lyra in The Secret Commonwealth she was alone, in the ruins of a deserted city. Pantalaimon had run from her – part of himself – in search of her imagination, which he believed she had lost. Lyra travelled across the world from her Oxford home in search of her dæmon. And Malcolm, loyal Malcolm, too journeyed far from home, towards the Silk Roads in search of Lyra . . .
In The Rose Field, their quests converge in the most dangerous, breathtaking and world-changing ways. They must take help from spies and thieves, gryphons and witches, old friends and new, learning all the while the depth and surprising truths of the alethiometer. All around them, the world is aflame – made terrifying by fear, power and greed.
As they move East, towards the red building that will reunite them and give them answers – on Dust, on the special roses, on imagination – so too does the Magisterium, at war against all that Lyra holds dear.
Marking thirty years since the world was first introduced to Pullman’s remarkable heroine Lyra Belacqua in Northern Lights, The Rose Field is the culmination of the cultural phenomenon of The Book of Dust and His Dark Materials.
'Ablaze with light and life . . . To read Pullman is to experience the world refreshed, aglow, in technicolour' - The Independent
