5/31/2023 0 Comments The bartimaeus trilogy book 1![]() ![]() ![]() The plot itself isn’t difficult to follow by any means, but some of the vocabulary used in this book might have gone over my head as a child and caused me to lose interest. Much like Harry Potter, it doesn’t talk down to its audience, and I believe this is both to the book’s credit and its detriment. In fact, I think I enjoy it more as an adult than I would have as a kid. In spite of the fact that I’m obviously not in the age demographic this is targeted towards, I enjoyed this just as much as a child would. It left enough of an impression on him that he had decided to keep it (along with the other two books in the trilogy) all these years so I thought I would give it a go. I chose to read it only because I discovered it among my fiancé’s books from his childhood home. I only have vague memories of Bartimaeus’s face leering at me from atop a bookshelf at our school library in middle-school. I don’t have any recollection of people discussing this series in the early 2000s. ![]()
