“Such a fun series! Bursting with magical mayhem, witty humor, and clever twists, the Bartimaeus series is an absolute blast to read. Jonathan Stroud’s storytelling is sharp and imaginative, with unforgettable characters. Because of the nature of the story, there is some violence and death—nothing overly graphic—that may be a bit intense for younger readers. Aside from that and some mild language, the books remain clean.” ~ Purely Fiction Reader Review
