Golem's Eye

by Jonathan Stroud

Reviewed by Peter B. of Year 8


The golem’s eye is a thrilling novel that will put you into the heads of all the characters. Go with Nathaniel as he hunts the mysterious Resistance. Adventure with Bartimaeus, Sakhr al-Jinni, N’gorso the Mighty or the Serpent of the Silver Plumes whichever name calls his fancy at the time, as he hunts down the thing that is destroying London. Venture with Kitty as she faces her past and hopes for a better future in the Resistance.
This masterpiece, with its detail shall put you in Piccadilly at the death of Simpkin the foliot or in Prague in 1868 A.D at a great war, or at the stationary shop in downtown London which serves as a base for the Resistance. This is a second spell binding book in a not-to-be-missed series and I hope you enjoy it.

What a fabulous review, Peter! I knew you could do it once you put your mind to it. Looking forward to more of your work. And I must read The Golem's Eye, although it is a long time since The Amulet of Samarkand, which I really did enjoy.
