Third and final part of the trilogy.

Finally found a copy of the final part, and finally found the time to read it.  I really enjoyed this whole series, and in fact quite a bit more than Harry Potter - the one it is most likely to get comparisons with I suspect.

The ending is not too twee, and the characters and story remain pretty strong throughout.  One of those stories that has opened up enough new characters along the way, and of course including Bartimaeus himself where you want to read and hear more of what they have done, or will do in the future.  

Thoroughly recommend, from youngsters (9+ maybe?) to adults.  Great stuff.

Follow up - The Golem's Eye

Well, this is the follow up to The Amulet of Samarkand.



Another good fun read and a worthy follow up to the first book.  My son found this in the local library - now just need to see if we can track down the third and final book of the trilogy.

Thank me later.... ;-)

Need a good book?

So this is book 1 of The Bartimaeus Triligy.  Great read. Great fun.  I picked it up because I liked the cover, couldn't put it down, and handed it over to No. 1 son straight after finishing it.
Thoroughly recommend.
