Tradition? sure. Honored? not by me.

And Queezle was not likeable. She was loveable.

Umm...how many lines did she have again? 3 or 4?

:P

KIDDING! she's important.

I never really thought that much about Queezle, really. But come to think of it, didn't she seem like the only sprit friend Bartimaeus has, or is it had, I need to check the "is Queezle alive or not" thread.

Bartimaeus did say that it wasn't so wise to make friends with other spirits, because eventually some magician would probably make them fight, so it's understandable.

But it does seem like the other spirits think he's wierd

Well, Bartimaeus befriended a human (ie. Ptolemy, Kitty, Nat for a little while) that has to be a rather large gap. Plus, he can be extremely annoying, I bet Queezle was one of the few who could tolerate him.

i'd resurect nat

Why? Please do tell and join in the debate.

I'd want to resurrect Nat. Even though he's not my fav character, he deserves life because he just learned his lesson and he can have a second chance at being a good person.

I'd also want to resurrect Farqual. Not because I like him, but because he seemed like the perfect nemesis for Barti. I always thought their interactions were funny and exciting. Jabor was okay too, but he only lasted the first book.

Farqual was only in the first book, too.

O.o No he wasn't... he's got a huge role in the third book. Mastermind behind the demon invasion and stuff...?

I've just started the third book, so I wouldn't know. *shrug*

He wasn't the mastermind, Architect is more appropriate.

faquarl was a great enemy so was honorius but i didnt like the golem much

Well, the golem didn't really have a mind of it's own, so it's kinda hard to like. But I thought the idea was cool, bone-crushing cold and all.

Ptolemy would have done a lot of good if he survived. Jane...not worth it. Jabor was always too hungry. Farquarl is a good counterpart, I agree with Isis, but Ptolemy is a better choice in my opinion. Honorius would make the setting a bit entertaining comically and action wise, but he was a bit crazy...not a good reason. Nat's ending was a bit good, so I think Nat took his end without regret...except about Kitty. And I don't think I would ressurect another character, except maybe Queezle.

Queezles alive, so you can't resurect her.

If it wouldn't ruin the trilogy, I would have them all come back to life.

Definitely Nathaniel!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. And if Ptolemy got resurrected, he would die again attempting some hare-brained schemes. None of the others deserve to be given another chance.
