Description Creators Details Reviews Three years have passed since the magician Nathaniel helped prevent a cataclysmic attack on London. Now an important member of the British government, he grapples with numerous problems: foreign wars are going badly, Britain's enemies are mounting attacks close to London, and rebellion is growing among the commoners.
Increasingly imperious and distracted, Nathaniel is treating Bartimaeus worse than ever. The long-suffering djinni is growing weak and vulnerable from too much time in this world, and his patience is nearing its end. Meanwhile, undercover in London, Nathaniel's longtime rival Kitty has been stealthily completing her research on magic, demons, and Bartimaeus's past.
She has a daring plan that she hopes will break the endless cycle of conflict between djinn and humans. The first audiobook in a thrilling new trilogy about an apprentice magician and the powerful djinni he summons. Nathaniel is a young magician with only one thing on his mind: revenge. As an apprentice to the great magician Underwood, Nathaniel is gradually being schooled in the traditional art of magic.
All is well until he has a life-changing encounter with Simon Lovelace, a rising, star magician. When Simon brutally humiliates Nathaniel in front of everyone he knows, Nathaniel decides to speed up his magical education, teaching himself spells way beyond his years. Eventually, he masters one of the most difficult spells of all: summoning the all-powerful djinni, Bartimeus. But summoning Bartimeus and controlling him are two very different things--and Nathaniel may be in way over his head.
The first book of this series reshaped the way I enjoy reading listening to novels. The transition between 1st and 3rd person keep me totally interested and engaged with the story. I love the language and syntax throughout the entire series. Simon Jones also is an amazing narrator. His voicd totally matches the smug cool intellectual tones of Nathaniel and Bartimaeus.
Best Audiobook I've listened to.
