The Screaming Staircase - Undakan Menjerit (2014)

Creepy fun. It reminded me of how I used to be afraid as a child to go down into my basement alone. Did I say "as a child"? This book made me think that I might have reasons to fear now. I'm just glad I don't live in England where "The Problem" has taken place. I loved the characters, Lucy, Lockw...

Book

Kvílející schodiště (2014)

I honestly can't believe this book is packaged as a middle school novel. It must be because publishers stupidly believe that people only want to read books about people their own age. Sure, the protagonists in this book are children, but the writing, language, plot, and world-building are AT LEA...

Der wispernde Schädel (2014)

3.5 starsIT ENDED WITH CLIFFHANGER NOoooooooooooooooooooooo!if you are familiar with Stroud's Bartimaeus trilogy, I would like to tell you that Bart's Sarcasm is being incarnated in the whispering skull, though it did Not talk that much, or in more proper words whisper.it is narrated by Lucy, th...

Book

Der Ring des Salomo (2010)

A departure from the world built up in the other Bartimaeus books, which is as much a part of their appeal as the character himself - but Stroud creates an equally rich backdrop here and to be honest it's a huge pleasure to dive into any story about the eponymous Djinni, which has the vibrant pro...

Book

The Ring of Solomon [Cincin Solomon] (2010)

This is a prequel to the Bartimaeus Sequence, however I decided I wanted to start with it. And so it happened that I met Bartimaeus, a clever and sarcastic djinn; Khaba, a magician that works for King Solomon; King Solomon himself; and Asmira, a "hereditary guard" for the Queen of Sheba. Together...

Book

L'anello di Salomone (2010)

I enjoyed reading this very much, but I would like to have seen Asmira's character developed more. I felt the same about Nathaniel in the previous books I read. DISCLAIMER: I know zippity-poop about writing, (my English teacher weeps when she reads my blogs, I'm sure), but some authors seem to d...

Book

La valle degli eroi (2009)

When I first picked up this book, I was really excited to read it because of the synopsis and because of the title of the book; afterwards, it all went down hill. At the beginning it was nice to know about the history of the valley itself and the families, but, later on for me, the book got worse...

Book

Valley - Tal der Wächter (2009)

This was an amazing book, with very likeable characters (despite their numerous faults!) and interesting events. It was written beautifully and had many elements of an old tale being told, the simultaneous legend of the "heroes of the valley" at the beginning of each chapter, and to a lesser exte...

Book

Bartimäus Das Amulett Von Samarkand: Graphic Novel (2011)

A graphic novel adaptation of the book by same name, it captures the graphic elements of the book well but fails to translate the witticism of the dialogue and underlying emotions that Stroud does effectively in books. The characters aren't explored as they are in books and they don't carry any a...

The Amulet of Samarkand (2010)

The Golem's Eye (2006)

حقیقتاً چهار و نیم یا شایدم یه کم کمتر بود؛ چون یه سری جاهاش کسل کننده شده بود. اول اینکه بگم من مطمئمناً دیگه جاناتان استرود رو ول نمی کنم :-" کتاب یک نمره ش سه بود؛ نسبت به این کتاب که پنج می گیره. چون به نظر من - و به احتمال زیاد - جلد اول این مجموعه اولین نوشته ی نویسنده بوده. این کتاب به مقد...

Book

Ptolemy's Gate (2006)

This book is very close to 5 stars...let us say it's another of those 4.5 books. I can recommend it and I do, but with a caveat, it is considered to be a youth or YA book. Be sure that your "youth" is mature enough for the book. I will go so far as to add a spoiler below for those who wish to kno...

Lockwood & Co.: The Creeping Shadow

Danny Skinner threw logs on the fire. The leaping flames danced on the rapiers laid out on the table; they danced in our eyes as we sat like robbers around a hoard, checking work belts, hefting bags of salt and iron into backpacks, drawing routes of attack on George’s map. We had many hours of wo...

Lockwood

A fizz, a crack – a dark shape sprang into the room. Lockwood danced forward, swung his rapier. There was a strangled squawk of alarm. For an instant nothing moved; Lockwood seemed frozen. My rapier too hung halfway through its arc; my muscles had locked as soon as I heard the breaking canister, ...

Bartimaeus: The Golem’s Eye

London in the rain. Gray sheets of water tumbled from the sky, breaking upon the pavements with a roar louder than cannon fire. A strong wind buffeted the rain this way and that, blowing it under porches and eaves, cornices and capstones, drowning each possible refuge with a freezing spray. There...

It keeps to itself, endlessly replaying a single moment from long ago. Easy to subdue using salt and iron. Cold Maiden The traditional floaty female ghost, usually featuring long hair, longer dresses, and plenty of weeping and hand-wringing. Generally wracked by ancient grief or guilt, Cold Maide...
