Bartimaeus, everyone's favorite (wise-cracking) djinni, is back in book four of this New York Times bestselling series that is perfect for fans of Artemis Fowl and Amari and the Night Brothers.
Thousands of years before his fateful service to the magician Nathaniel in London, wily Bartimaeus served as djinni to hundreds of masters, from Babylon and Ancient Egypt to the modern Middle East. Now fans can go back in time with the djinni, to Jerusalem and the court of King Solomon in 950 BCE. Only in this adventure, it seems the great Bartimaeus has finally met his match.
A spellbinding addition to Jonathan Stroud’s beloved Bartimaeus series, The Ring of Solomon brims with dazzling wit, unforgettable characters, and powerful themes of freedom and slavery, with or without magical bonds.

What reviewers said
“Bartimaeus's pointed humor makes for a story worth savoring."
"The truly original touch is the way Stroud alternates Nathaniel's story with the djinni's own knowing and irascible first-person narrative.”
"For readers who loved the earlier volumes for the sheer adventure, this, with its battles, magic and great crashing conclusion, will not disappoint. A worthy ending to an exceptional saga."
“So rarely do humor and plot come together in such equally strong measures that we can only hope for more adventures.”
“The pace never slows in this wisecracking adventure…Stroud has created a compelling fantasy story in a well-realized world, but it is the complementary characters of Bartimaeus and Nathaniel that will keep readers coming back for the rest of the [series].”
"A must-purchase for all fantasy collections."
