Three years after the events of The Golem's Eye, the young
magician Nathaniel is an established member of the British
Government. But he faces unprecedented problems: foreign
wars are going badly and Britain's enemies are mounting
attacks close to London. Increasingly distracted, he is
treating Bartimaeus worse than ever: the long-suffering
djinni is growing weak from too much time in this world, and
his patience is at an end. Meanwhile, undercover in London,
Kitty has been stealthily completing her research into magic
and Bartimaeus' past. She hopes to break the endless cycle
of conflict between djinn and humans - but will she be able
to get anyone to listen? Before any of these problems can be
resolved, disaster strikes London from an unexpected source
and the destinies of Bartimaeus, Nathaniel, and Kitty are
thrown together once more. They have to face treacherous
magicians, a long-fermented conspiracy, and an enemy from
'The Other Place' that threatens London and the world. Worst
of all, they must somehow cope with each other....
Bartimaeus fans will be entranced by Stroud's brilliantly
conceived finale to the series - sure to be a major best seller.
