Review: The Amulet of Samarkand

The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I loved Bartimaeus, his snarky tone, his irascible nature. Nathaniel, like his master, was extremely well-drawn, and consequently, annoying as hell. Stroud kept me walking that tightrope of being sympathetic to him in his quest for revenge, and also made me want to shake the snot out of him and force feed him a clue or two.
