Summary

In The Amulet of Samarkand, the young magician Nathaniel won wide acclaim for his daring exploits in saving the powerful jewel for the government. Now, he seems set to continue his meteoric rise through the ministerial ranks. But the mysterious Resistance inflicts terrifying destruction on London, and soon Nathaniel's job and his very life are under threat, not only from the elusive Kitty and her companions, but from an unknown and bewildering source. Nathaniel is forced to embark on a perilous mission to the enemy city of Prague and to summon once again the troublesome, enigmatic, and quick-witted djinni, Bartimaeus.

This is a roller-coaster ride of magic, adventure, and political skullduggery, in which the fates of Nathaniel, Bartimaeus and Kitty explosively collide.

Brilliant as ever

Brilliant work by Stroud and expertly read. My only note would be to incorporate the footnotes that served as Batlrtimaeus's thoughts in the written work as they oft provide context or personal insight relevant to the story

A great listen

Second book & I thought much better than book 1. There are references to book 1, but you don't necessarily have had to have read it. The story moves at a good pace, draws you in & although no real surprises it is fun. Essentially a teenage read, but I loved it & will be moving onto the next one shortly. Makes a car journey go very quickly & you'll be looking for traffic jams to join.

Brilliant

Fantastic
The only reason I tried the series is because of Steven Pacey, he is absolutely brilliant and a master of his craft.
The story is engaging and very entertaining and I didn’t want it to end.
Jonathon Stroud is my new favourite author, I hope the Bartimaeus trilogy will never end 😝

Great Junior fiction.

Funny, clever with believable protagonist's. The lead role is a cad but you want him to succeed.

Bartimaeus steals the show again...

Pacey was the perfect choice for narrator. He understands the characters perfectly. The story is not as good as the amulet of samarkand but the characters are still relatable.

Good listening

2nd part of the brilliant Bartemeus trilogy and equally as entertaining as the 1st and 3rd. Energetically read by Steven Pacey the story flies along. Never a dull moment download all three parts, you won't regret it.

Still fun

I read this when first published after I left uni and found the audio book 18 years later just a good, funny and enthralling as ever.
Well recommended
