" I enjoyed all of the Children of the Lamp books. Fun, light fantasy geared for children around age 8-mid teens. For adults, there's some good humor and a good writing style we will enjoy as well. "

" After the disappointing sequel to "Children of the Lamp", this book was like a breath of fresh air. It was SO interesting and I finished in two days. "

" I enjoyed this one much more than the previous book in the series, perhaps because I read it myself, whereas I had listened to the other book on CD. The tone of the reader makes a big difference. Anyway, I found this one humorous and lively, and I liked that the kids got the chance to do a lot of dangerous things themselves--or mostly by themselves. It ended with a good setup for the next book, which I will probably read when it comes out. "

" one of my faves of the series :) "
-




Roshni | 12/8/2013
" The twins travel to India and Nepal, the Indian culture represented is a little far-fetched, but a good third installment in their adventures. "
-

Chloe | 11/21/2011
" I did say that I love this series :) My fave part in this book is when they get caught by the indians and go for the adventure with Dybbuk (Buck) "
-




Andrea | 8/17/2011
" An interesting look at what one man's quest for power can do to others and ultimately to himself. Some funny moments, and good plot. Not terribly deep, but a fun read. "
-




Sarah | 4/27/2011
" These books just keep getting better and better! Philip Kerr makes his writing addictive to read, and his use of third-person omniscient is masterful. Another great adventure. I can't wait to pick up the next one!
"

" Philippa and John go to India and encounter the Cobra King. A man who wants to be a djinn - by replacing his blood with djinn blood. Nimrod and Mr. R are deep frozen.

Lori | 2/19/2011
" I read it out of order but enjoyed it. A bit scary for a kids book.
"
-




IsAbel | 1/1/2011
" Besides the little encounter in the book before, this is where Dybbuk comes into the series. I think that once he comes in it all becomes so much better of a series. He is so mysterious that you never know what his choice is going to be.

Alymarie | 10/24/2010
" "It really gave me the chills because i'm NOT the biggest fan of snakes, but the rest of the story was filled with murder, magic and mystery."
"
-




Brett | 9/1/2010
" Exciting, funny, & filled with strong characters, this book is a fantastic read, just like the others in the series. I especially enjoyed the various references to Beatles songs scattered cleverly throughout the book, an enjoyable detail that might be missed by younger readers.
"
-




Shannon | 7/29/2010
" I think this was the best of the series so far. I liked the use of angels, it's one of the best in fantasy fiction I've seen.

Molly | 6/13/2010
" I really like the way this series is written...and can't wait to get my hands on the next book!! Sometimes you can really tell that the author is normally an adult novelist (Phillip Kerr), but I just love what he can do as P.B. Kerr.
I hope he keeps them coming!!

Alison | 2/19/2010
" **spoilers**
Descriptions of the guru were gross. The book contained too many depressing plots elements - foreshadowing Rakshasas death, speedy aging of father, mother becoming blue jinn, Buck's internal battles, Buck's sister...
