Philip Pullman Quote

I was condemned to be burnt myself recently, or my books were. An article in the _Catholic Herald_ said that my _His Dark Materials_ was far more worthy of the bonfire than Harry [Potter]; it was a million times more sinister. Naturally, I'm very proud of this distinction, and I asked the publishers to print it in the paperback of _The Subtle Knife_.
