About

OMG that was the sadest book ever!!! Anyone who knows this as this as a bench in Oxford's Botanic Garden either knows what book it is just really cool!
This is the bench where every mid-summer day at mid day Lyra and Will both sit at. This is told in the Amber Spyglass, the conclusion to the "His Dark Materials" series, by Philip Pullman. For more information you'll have to read the series. First book is ok, second books kinda bad, but the third book will blow your head off (if your sitting infront of a cannon). It is heart-breaking and yet enlightening at the same time, (I'm a little more heartbroken at the moment) and is a must read but you need to read the whole series to understand it. Highlight the black space above if you can't guess and need to know the answer.
BEWARE SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HIGHLIGHT BLACK SPACE ABOVE!!!!!Sam: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?
Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for.
