I voted for the beginning chapter of Golem's eye.It represents the quinessential of what Barti is.His sarcasm ,wit and of cource his primary rule of saving your own essense above all else.Plus I liked his interaction with Kneasel and his fight with Honorius.

I like his talk with Faquarl, though I kinda forgot who he was in the beginning. :P

Next would have to be the ending, where Nate and Barti are working together. It was hilarious.

it was, but I like all of when he was with Ptolemy
'"That's right," I said "Me. What, did you think that I'd be all nice and quiet for you? Think again, sonny. There are two of us in this body now. Check this out."
To prove my point I lifted one of his fingers and methodically picked his nose. He uttered a squawk of protest. "Stop that!"'
I lowered the arm. "That's not all I can do if I put your mind to it"'

I liked the Gate's prologue.
'"That's right," I said "Me. What, did you think that I'd be all nice and quiet for you? Think again, sonny. There are two of us in this body now. Check this out."

I loved all the chats between Kitty and Bartimaeus, especially in Chapter 15, book 3. I kept expecting Kitty to take up Barti's dare to step out of her pentacle. In fact, I was so sure she was going to, that I was shouting, "Kitty, NO! Don't do it!!", and my heart was racing like I'd just run a marathon.:o

I wonder if Bartimaeus really would've attacked her if she'd left her pentacle...
'...it was like looking at a clear night sky--all black and cold and infinite, with tiny lights glinting, unreachable and far away.... It was terrible, yet beautiful; she was drawn to it as a child to a window.'

no, he'd simply have dematerialised and left Kitty to cry.

Ya but come on, Kitty? i doubt he would have done it, he would have probably put his trust in Kitty's plan there and then.

Come on, he not only said he was going to,tho there is lots of lying involved when it comes to Bartimaeus,he thought it. Maybe after she started talking about Ptolemy he started having second thoughts about eating her.
I loved the Bartimaeus books but, like all trilogies, it was way too short.
