This graphic novel adpatation of Jonathan Stroud's Bartimeus book is excellent. Nathaniel is the young apprentice of a magician in a modern day London where the ruling class of politicians are replaced by magicians, and the underclass is those without magic. Nathaniel is humiliated by Simon Lovelace, ruthless and powerful contemporary of his master and in order to take revenge summons the ancient djinn Bartimaeus. Great plotting, great adpatation and wonderful artwork of the story of a young magician to rival Timothy Hunter.
