YA14: The Amulet of Samarkand

Spinnity recommended this one a while back, and so I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't love it, but it is a very intriguing world (modern London with magicians running the county and djinnis at their summons, etc.) and I'd be willing to try the others in The Bartimaeus Trilogy (this was book #1)

The Amulet of Samarkand

Ages 9-12
Hardcover: 464 pages
Miramax (September, 2003)
