The Ring of Solomon (Bartimaeus, #0.5)

I love love love this book!
Please please PLEASEEEEEE Jonathan Stroud, write another prequel/sequel/epic poem/play/novella/memoir/thesis/whatever of Barty! We, his adoring fans, could never get enough of him!
Ok, back to the book. This is your typical Barty-like adventure. High-speed chases, extreme danger, lots of demons (scary, weird, yucky, you name it), strong (but flawed) characters, and of course...the trademark acerbic, sarcastic, narcissistic comments from our dear beloved jinni.
O Barty, how I LOL-ed so hard when I read about when Solomon caught you in your pygmy-hippo-in-a-skirt guise tossing stones to build the Temple Mount while you're supposed to use human guise and do the work manually...
I think I really envy Ptolemy :( My life would be soooo colorful if I have Barty around. One thing for sure, I'll never get bored.

*echa yg masih shock dgn konsep dunia sempit*
*roos penasaran ma covernya*
Duuuuh jd penasaran...
*bayangin senyum usil Barty*
siyal, banyak fansnya dia... tambah kegeeran deh
tapi belum ada covernya .. hmmmm
judulnya ada Solomon-nya, berarti ini cerita Barty jauuh sebelum ketemu Nat (ihiks hiks) ya
pasti seruu ada Faquarl lagi ..
hard cover sih ga masalah - ada e-book :D :D
urgh beneran si Barty udah cengar cengir puas liat fans-nya pada ga sabar ketemu dia..
Itu prekuel kok, ini plot descriptionnya:
Bartimaeus, everyone's favorite (wise-cracking) djinni, is back in book four of this best-selling series. As alluded to in the footnotes throughout the series, Bartimaeus has served hundreds of magicians during his 5,010 year career. Now, for the first time, fans will go back in time with the djinni, to Jerusalem and the court of King Solomon in 950s BC. Only in this adventure, it seems the great Bartimaeus has finally met his match. He'll have to contend with an unpleasant master and his sinister servant, and runs into just a "spot" of trouble with King Solomon's magic ring.

jadi ini sebelum ketemu Ptolemy juga ya ..
*lupa Ptolemy kapan haha*
Pulsa sekarat, untung ke post juga ;D
maaf... hehehehe
kalo ttg Solomon pasti seru abis tuh! secara si Barty paling narsis 'coz bangga pernah mendampingi raja terbesar di dunia manusia dan jin ini, padahal lom jelas posisi dia sbg apa
pengen liat muka si Barty pas disuruh Solomon jd tukang cuci piring. wkwkwkwk
Ptolemy sendiri idupnya paling sekitar abad 2 SM
atau disuruh ngurusin selirnya Solomon yg sampe 1000 itu hihihi
jadi inget waktu dia pernah disuruh siapa gitu utk ngitungin pasir LOL

yg nggak sadar lagi ngeflood
iya, dia kan suka menyombongkan diri pernah kerja dibawah great kings macem Solomon, Gilgamesh dll.
Gue pengen ada cerita prekuel ketika Barty disummon pertama kali, jaman Uruk. Pasti kocak tuh dia masih newbie. Pas di Solomon era ini, umur Barty udah 2,000 tahun soalnya.
wuahahahahahaha....
the pygmy-hippo-in-a-skirt guise does strongly remind you of someone, doesn't it?
*ngakak guling*
hihi iyah, tau aja :D
