Bartimaeus Trilogy Book 3 - Ptolemys Gate (06) by Stroud, Jonathan [Hardcover (2005)] - Stroud

I really don't have a whole lot to say about the final book in the Bartimaeus Trilogy. I quite enjoyed reading it but I must say that I found the ending highly surprising.

 

Not many authors choose to kill off one of the main characters, though I found it oddly satisfying at the same time as it being horribly unfair, as a (mostly) redemption arc ending in death is always bitter-sweet. I wanted to see Nathaniel and Kitty interact more and get to see Nathaniel more after he had realized his mistakes. But it was great to see him and Bartimaeus really working together.

 

Also, I desperately want to see Kitty and Bartimaeus meeting up and partaking in shenanigans or just chatting or drinking tea together or SOMETHING in a short story or book taking place after this. Please.
