[edit] Orthography

At present (June 2006) this article has a very poor level of orthography, with numerous irregularities of formatting, presentation, spelling, punctuation and grammar. Tenses switch wildly, and despite several people's attempts to improve the spelling and punctuation there are still many faults. It could really do with a big overhaul, and I wish I had the time right now to do that.

[edit] Bias

Im guessing this was written by the same person who wrote the "Bartimaeus Trilogy" article, because again, It's biased towards his/her favorite characters.

[edit] spoilers

I think the article should be marked for spoilers. When i was scrolling down the page i found spoilers about book two, which i had'nt read yet.

You shouldn't be reading an article for a series, and not expect to see excerpts from the book(s) you haven't read!!71.99.110.7 18:57, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Verroq?

Waaaaait a second... when is the mercenary's name mentioned? I've never heard of him having a name before, and considering how much I adore this series, I'm pretty sure I'd have noticed.

Well, this just prooves that you need to be a better reader.71.99.110.7 23:30, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

FYI, Makepeace mentions his name once in book 3, In the theatre, just after all the ministers are captured and before Nathaniel and Kitty are taken away.

[edit] What IS Shubit?

Jessica Whitwell's demon, named Shubit...About it...Is it a djinni or an afrit? In the second book, it described it as a djinni, but in the third, it was an afrit...Or it was the other way around, I don't remember. —Preceding unsigned comment added by James chen0 (talkcontribs) 00:11, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

You hve it the right way 'round. I call him an afrt just because it makes him cooler, but we have no idea. Therequiembellishere (talk) 04:29, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jabor

Isn't Jabor an Afrit? I changed it, sorry if I was wrong, but I could have sworn in the first or second book it said he was an afrit. Leosj (talk) 00:41, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, he's not. Therequiembellishere (talk) 00:48, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
