The Bartimaeus Sequence is made up of four bestselling novels featuring the grumpy, sarcastic and resourceful fourth-level djinni, Bartimaeus. The series has sold more than 6 million copies in 36 languages worldwide.

The trilogy of The Amulet of Samarkand, The Golem's Eye and Ptolemy's Gate are set mainly in an alternative present-day London. They follow Bart's relationships with his young master, Nathaniel, and with Kitty, a fiery member of the Resistance against the magicians. These three books have received many awards, including: the Mythopoeic Fantasy Award for Children’s Literature, USA, the Grand Prix de l’Imaginaire, France, and the Children’s Book Award of the Jury of Young Readers, Austria.

The prequel novel, The Ring of Solomon, has an all-new setting, with Bartimaeus at the height of his powers. It won the Prix Millepages and has been shortlisted for the Costa Book Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize.
