Thanks for your message, which Random House passed on to me. And thanks VERY much for your great forum, which I checked out today. It looks superb! I was amazed how much stuff you had on there, and it was interesting to read a lot of the opinions too. (Not that I agreed with all of them...!) It's actually a new world for me because I've not visited any forum before. In fact my computer's so old that I was kind of relieved it managed to access your site without melting/exploding; one of my aims now that I've finished the trilogy is to get an up to date machine. I'm also going to start designing a proper Bartimaeus website, so seeing your forum really inspired me. How long did it take to set it all up? I feel like a commoner gawping at a djinni's illusion - totally unable to fathom how it works.

Anyway, I'm really pleased that you've enjoyed the books so much - your site's given me a lot of pleasure in return too. If you want to add a section with member's questions, I'd be delighted to answer them at some point. It would probably be in February, as I'm away for most of Jan.

Let me know your plans.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Stroud
