Ptolemy's Gate by Jonathan Stroud

3.0

In all honesty, I'm not sure what I really think of this book. The ending was pretty cool, but the rest just felt way to dragged out. 99% percent of the time I felt like I could skip five pages and not have missed much. The idea of demons and magicians merging was cool. I loved the part where Kitty went to the other place. Bartimaeus had awesome commentary, per usual. In the Amulet of Samarkand Nathaniel was my favorite character possibly. He got annoying in the Golem's Eye. In this book, he was no better then the rest of the magicians. Kitty was a really cool character consistently. Bartimaeus was the best character overall. Though, Nathaniel did redeem himself in the end. Wasn't expecting him to die. That was really sad.
