Sobre este título
From the author of the Lockwood & Co. series comes a witty, gripping adventure story featuring a boy and his not-so-tame djinni, perfect for fans of Artemis Fowl and Amari and the Night Brothers.
Nathaniel is a young magician's apprentice, taking his first lessons in the arts of magic. But when a devious hotshot wizard named Simon Lovelace ruthlessly humiliates Nathaniel in front of everyone he knows, Nathaniel decides to kick up his education a few notches and show Lovelace who's boss. With revenge on his mind, he masters one of the toughest spells of all: summoning the all-powerful djinni, Bartimaeus. But summoning Bartimaeus and controlling him are two different things entirely, and when Nathaniel sends the djinni out to steal the powerful Amulet of Samarkand, Nathaniel finds himself caught up in a whirlwind of magical espionage, murder, blackmail, and revolt.
Set in a modern-day London spiced with magicians and mayhem, this extraordinary, funny, New York Times bestselling thriller will dazzle the myriad fans of the His Dark Materials trilogy and is on the fast track to becoming a classic.

“In a contemporary London full of magic, a thrilling adventure unfolds.”—Kirkus Reviews
“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].”—Horn Book
"Not since Gulliver's Travels has a children's writer managed to combine a thrilling tale of magic and adventure with such deliciously pointed comedy."—The Times
