Wahrheit Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I thought it was supposed to be a Trilogy! Damnit, now I have another book to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarven King Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Oh my god! You have no idea how happy I was when my librarian told me there was a fourth book and she had it ordered! O: It comes in within the next two weeks, and I get it first before anyone else! I'm a happy Dwarf. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 It was pretty good, though a bit different from the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarven King Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 There are so many questions I wanna ask! But I don't wanna have it ruined for me! >.< Oh! I know a harmless yes or no question! Is Kitty in the book? EDIT: CRAP! I HAVE TO ASK THIS! Did Nathaniel some how miraculously escape the collapsing building?! Was he some how brought back to life?! Or is forever and always dead?! GAH!!! NOO!!!! DO NOT TELL ME!!! FORGET I ASKED THAT!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *computer voice* I'm sorry, but the owner of this account is currently losing his mind. Please leave your name and number and he will get back with you once he has retained his sanity. Thank you and have a nice day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 The Ring of Solomon isn't a sequel. It's a prequel set in Jerusalem, in the times of Solomon. As an extra plus you get to finally see what Bart and Solomon talked about. According to the Home Page Kitty's starting on trying to achieve a London without magic. As for Nathaniel, no info, but presumably, ...yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKPLANT RISING Posted April 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I would have liked it better to end the sequels right and there. It seemed the best ending possible, and to create even an epilogue would have worsened the way it ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet I'm writing a book with a sad ending. I feel like a walking contradiction. :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of releasing The Golem's Eye and Ptolemy's Gate, just use those bindings and 'accidentally' reprint Amulet of Samarkand in them. trollface.jpg It is very, very, [i]very[/i] good that this isn't a sequel. Could actually be interesting. May read it if I have time. And stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 A new Bartimaeus book?! [img]http://i.ytimg.com/vi/g73U615J2pU/0.jpg[/img] Thank heaven's it's not a sequel. I loved the ending and would've hated if it was changed. This book looks awesome. If I weren't being forced to read "classics" in my English class, I would get right on this (I don't read more than one book at a time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwarven King Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Ok, finished the book. OMG! AMAZING! After I finished reading it, I thought to myself "What could possibly be greater than this?" And then...I found it. Yes, that's right. I found something GREATER than "The Ring of Solomon". What is it, you ask? Read the spoiler. [spoiler=AMAZING!]THEY ARE MAKING A MOVIE OVER THE AMULET OF SAMARKAND!!!!!! OH MY GOSH!!!!!! *screams like a teenage girl twilight fan*[/spoiler] Yeah, I went there. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
