Earniel, I have not read Lyra's Oxford, but I have certainly perused the book, and IMO, it *is* worth spending that much money, because it is a really nicely packaged book, with beautiful illustrations, and fold-out maps.

You know how to sell it, BoP. Are you sure you don't have stocks somewhere of that printing company? Well, I'll have a look at it when it see it in the book stores, but that might take a while still.

Young Samwise got it for his birthday; the maps look great but I only had a quick glance.
Next time he's over I must get him to bring it so we can wander around visiting all the spots on the map. Jericho has some great pubs er I mean fascinating architecture. I've just got to the end of the second book. Now I see what all the religious people were getting their knickers in a twist about. Great stuff! |
