The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud
3.0

3.5
stroud really likes his dark alt londons with tierlists of power/magical beings
unfortunately I just didn't connect to this book like I did w/ lockwood & co. strangely flat to me :( sad :( I like stroud's work a lot. maybe it was the 1st person bartimaeus pov (loved the footnotes btw) and the detached 3rd person nathaniel pov. I'm interested, but not as much as I wish I were.
