Nathaniel is a magician's apprentice, taking his first lessons in the arts of magic. But when a devious hot-shot wizard named Simon Lovelace ruthlessly humiliates Nathaniel in front of his elders, Nathaniel decides to kick up his education a few notches and show Lovelace who's boss. With revenge on his mind, he summons the powerful djinni, Bartimaeus. But summoning Bartimaeus and controlling him are two different things entirely, and when Nathaniel sends the djinni out to steal Lovelace's greatest treasure, the Amulet of Samarkand, he finds himself caught up in a whirlwind of magical espionage, murder, and rebellion.

Wow. Its been a while since I've posted. Lol.
But, anyway, this wasn't the best book I've ever read. It was really boring, and the plot did not move fast at all. I didn't like it. At. All. I'm not even going to read the second one because its just so BORING.
I remember trying to read this in fifth grade. I read the first couple of chapters, and put it back. Now I know why. So, in short, unless you have absolutely nothing else to read, then don't read this. It was like reading David Copperfield. Only ten times more boring.
