About Me

I'm the school librarian at G.S. Lakie Middle School. As you can see - me, reading and comfy chairs go way back. I still enjoy Asterix and many other graphic novels. My main reason for blogging is for reviewing books for the students and anyone else that might be interested in YA literature.

The Ring of Solomon


The Ring of Solomon by Jonathan Stroud --
A Bartimaeus Novel
Bartimaeus, everyones favourite (wise-cracking) djinni, is back in book four of this best selling series. As alluded to in the footnotes throughout the series, Bartimaeus has served hundreds of magicians during his 5010 year career. Now, for the first time, fans will go back in time with the djinni, to Jerusalem and the court of King Solomon in 950's BC. Only in this adventure, it seems the great Bartimaeus has finally met his match. He'll have to contend with an unpleasant master and his sinister servant, and runs into just a "spot" of trouble with King Solomon's magic ring...
Love this series can't wait to have more.
Here's the book trailer.
