His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass, the Subtle Knife, the Amber Spyglass; Introduction by Lucy Hughes-Hallett
Philip PullmanYou know, the His Dark Materials series were some of my favourite books as a child, and they still mean an awful lot to me. So it would be really, really great if Philip Pullman could somehow manage to stop blithely minimising racism. https://t.co/B3ruKewrre

The Dark Tower I: The Gunslinger
Stephen King"He GIFTS you and you INSULT HIM" is funny enough, but Stephen King never wrote a book called 'The Stand and The Tower'. The Stand was also published in 1978, not the 80s. The Dark Tower series began in 1982 with The Gunslinger but The Dark Tower book didn't come out until 2004. https://t.co/gISurphKVo
