The explosive conclusion to the New York Times-bestselling trilogy. Over six million copies sold of the action-packed children's fantasy series!

Three years have passed since the magician Nathaniel helped prevent a cataclysmic attack on London. Now an established member of the British government, he faces unprecedented problems: foreign wars are going badly, and rebellion is fermenting among the commoners. Increasingly imperious and distracted, Nathaniel is treating Bartimaeus worse than ever. The long-suffering djinni is growing weak from too much time in this world and is nearing the end of his patience.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel's longtime rival Kitty has been stealthily completing her research on magic, demons, and Bartimaeus's past. She has a daring plan that she hopes will break the endless cycle of conflict between djinn and humans. But will anyone listen to what she has to say?

In this glorious conclusion to the Bartimaeus trilogy, the destinies of Bartimaeus, Nathanial, and Kitty converge once more. For the first time, we will learn the secrets of Bartimaeus's history and get a glimpse into the Other Place, as together the threesome faces treacherous magicians, a complex conspiracy, and a rebellious faction of demons.
