I'd like that too, Dreamteam! We get to see how Lyra lives after what happens in HDM, I think Will deserves the same thing. It'd be nice to see what happens with the rest of their lives too.
Ooh, and a history of the witches! Serafina is one of my favourite characters, it'd be great to learn more about her.
And what about John Parry's life in Lyra's world? We don't find out much about it in the trilogy, and I think it'd be interesting to find out.
Oh, I could go on!

I didn't know about this!  so these are books? or short stories?
seeing as I didn't know about this I can't say exactly what they should be about, but I agree if there is one about Lyra, there shoudl also be one about Will:)

I agree with what everyone has said here so far. I haven't been able to read either of the two other published books, the "prequel" or Lyra's Oxford (they're always gone at the library and my library is horrible about notifying when hold requests become available). Being as involved in most books that I read, I always want to know what happens next, after the story ends. So something about Will would be great.
But in addition to the stories about Iorek, the Gypians and Serafina, I would love to learn more about the circumstances behind Serafina and Farder Coram's romance. We know that he saved her and that they had a child together...but why? What happened next?

keola sombra, these are short stories in book form, Lyra's Oxford is a sequel to HDM and Once Upon aTime in the North is a prequel about how Lee Scoresby and Iorek Byrnison first met.
I love everyone's ideas for future books, I too would like to read more about the witches and the gyptians. A story about the bears would be good, I want to know about their history.
For anyone having difficulty obtaining Lyra's Oxford and Once Upon a Time in the North I've found a site here where you can borrow digital copies for two weeks, there may be other similar sites, I just Googled "Lyra's Oxford" digital and this was the first site that came up.

I agree...I would like to learn more about Serafina in general, but also about her romance with Farder Coram and their child. But I would also like to see a story about Will as well. He is one of my favorite characters, and as people have already said, they tell what happens to Lyra after HDM so why not Will?

I saw Phillip Pullman's video-link interview for the film...he said (i cant quote exactly):
QUOTE there's been a little red book about Lyra, and there will be a little blue book about Iorek and Lee...so maybe soon i will write a little green book about will.
also, i really, really, cant wait for the book of dust. PP is being very mysterious, he just says that it will be about certain characters from HDM and that its
QUOTE a big book, a big, big, book
