    Wow, that really was well timed. Nice interview, he's one of my favourite writers.
  • @liber-primus
    He his so good a writing! The end of the Amber Spyglass made me cry
  • @enigma9306
    he said the magic pudding! I thought I was the only one who even knew that existed grew up with that. best ever
  • I was so surprised when he said Medtner. Pleasantly, though. He just keeps doubling my sympathy for him.

    Lel ppa gets peak man said I gotta watch this ting for English fam bare peak and looong
  • I'm crying, I love him so much. Tolkien, Lewis and Rowling vibes right here.
  • @SvenTviking
    I just wish he would sort out the TERRIBLE ending to the dark materials trilogy. He attacks religion for having arbitrary punishments and then what does he do in his own universe? Dishes out arbitrary punishment to Lara and Tom. Pillock.
  • Can't believe the amount of people gushing over this bloke. He writes shit and he's in love with himself. If you doubt me, just read His Dark Materials. It's a complete embarrassment from start to finish
