Friday, November 12 at our Highlands Ranch Store at 4:30 pm:
Jonathan Stroud, the bestselling author of the beloved Bartimaeus Trilogy for young readers, will read from and sign his eagerly anticipated new book Bartimaeus: The Ring of Solomon . Stroud’s new book is a prequel to the three books originally published as the Bartimaeus Trilogy: The Amulet of Samarkand, The Golem’s Eye and Ptolemy’s Gate. It follows Bartimaeus during his legendary encounters with King Solomon. King Solomon the Great, ruler of ancient Israel, is admired and feared by all, thanks to an all-powerful magic ring, with which he can command vast armies of spirits. One of his slaves is Bartimaeus, who (typically) is none too pleased about it, but things only get worse for him when he meets Asmira, a young Sheban girl sent to Jerusalem on a secret and deadly errand. Featuring an all-new setting, one or two old acquaintances, and Bartimaeus at the height of his powers, The Ring of Solomon is the most action-packed Bart book so far!
