"This elegant edition, with black-and-white linocut illustrations by Tom Duxbury, marks the print debut of Philip Pullman's gothic novella, which is about "the girl who will become the dangerous Mrs. Coulter" in His Dark Materials." –New York Times
"Readers will be left with a renewed appreciation for one of our most sublime storytellers." –Wall Street Journal
"The slow burn from curious mystery, to the increasingly darker and ultimately horrific ending, is the classic stuff of late night gothic. With Tom Duxbury's lovely spare illustrations on nearly every page, The Collectors is a gorgeous visit to a much-loved literary landscape. It's a quick read, but one to be savored, and certainly a treat worth indulging." –Locus
