Epic finale: magicians, djinn, rebellion, and survival.

If you've journeyed with Nathaniel and Bartimaeus thus far, "Ptolemy's Gate" won't just be a mere conclusion; it's a tapestry where every thread from the prior books weaves into a dramatic and fulfilling crescendo. The stakes are at their highest, alliances shimmy on thin ice, and the blend of action, wit, and heart makes this more than just a fantastical escapade—it's a finale that will stay with you.

Description

The tremendous climax of the Bartimaeus sequence. Three years on from the events in The Golem's Eye, the magicians' rule in London is teetering on a knife-edge, with strikes, riots and general unrest. The Prime Minister is largely controlled by two advisers, one of whom is 17-year-old Nathaniel. Meanwhile, living under a false identity, Kitty has been researching djinn; she has come to believe that the only way to destroy the magicians is with an alliance between djinn and ordinary people. Kitty seeks out Bartimaeus and embarks on a terrifying journey into the djinn's chaotic domain – the Other Place – which no human being has ever survived. But even as she does so, Makepeace engineers a dramatic coup d'etat. The outcome is a shattering of the magicians' control and all magical laws are turned upside down. Can Bartimaeus, Nathaniel and Kitty settle old scores to prevent the earth's destruction?
