Summary
When the 5,000-year-old djinni Bartimaeus is summoned by Nathaniel, he expects to have to do nothing more taxing than a little levitation. But Nathaniel is a precocious talent and has something rather more dangerous in mind: revenge. Set in a modern-day London controlled by magicians, this thriller is of interest to readers of various ages.
