5 of 5 I LoVe Bartimaeus! Wednesday, July 05, 2006
A Reader from Georgia  

This is such a cute little story! It's quite odd, including magicians, demons, imps and many other fun little pieces. It sounds kind of harsh but it's really not. I think it would be awesome for my son to read. I read this entire trilogy in one straight line and it's my all time favorite now! Try these books! They're awesome!
