The novels of Philip Pullman might be fantasy novels set in multiple locations in many parallel universes but many people still see his book, particularly ttheNorthern Lights as being as ‘Oxford fiction’, because of the importance of an alternate version of Oxford which was recreated in this novel.
Jordan College might be fictional and the human companions might not be those you see wandering around Oxford but there is an Oxford backdrop to many.
For more about the alternate Oxford, find a copy of Lyra’s Oxford, a companion book to the trilogy.
