Ptolemy's Gate by Jonathan Stroud *****

In the last of the Bartimaeus trilogy Nathaniel is even older and is working in two departments and is high-ranking in the government. Bartimaeus is treated worse than ever and needs to go to his home. The former leader of a extinct group of rebels is training in magic and is curious in a theory called Ptolemy's Gate which probably can go to Bartimaeus's home, but only Ptolemy has (supposedly) successfully attempted it. Meanwhile the american colonies are rebelling (>=/) and the british empire is falling apart.

I recommend this book for adventure and drama readers.
