For non-stop action from an absolute genius of an author with razor-sharp wit then look no further than this epic trilogy. Ptolemy’s Gate is the triumphant conclusion to the trilogy and although it stands alone as a read in itself the reader will have missed out as the first two, The Amulet of Samarkand and The Golem’s Eye are equally impressive and not to be missed. All have fantastic storylines, unusual and thought-provoking characters. Without a doubt it’s inspired writing for children from a masterful storyteller. Kids who have enjoyed the challenge and the depth of Phillip Pullman’s Dark Materials Trilogy or The Lord of the Rings will be eager to get into a trilogy of this magnitude. Adults will devour it with equal satisfaction.
Kitty has come to believe that the only way to destroy the magicians is for an alliance of some kind between djinn and ordinary people. But even as she embarks on a journey into the djinn's domain, a coup d'etat results in the shattering of the magicians' control. Can Bartimaeus, Nathaniel and Kitty prevent the earth's destruction?
Jonathan Stroud wrote his first novel – Buried Fire – while working as an editor at Walker Books.
