Bartimaeus trilogy - 2003 saw the publication of a brand new novel, the first title of The Bartimeus Trilogy called The Amulet of Samarkand, an enthralling new fantasy trilogy about a wickedly witty and thoroughly irresistible "djinni." Skillfully inventive in plot and structure and vividly atmospheric, this magical epic is Stroud at his best.
