Best books to learn The Bartimaeus Sequence, in order

Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus books are read in publication order — The Amulet of Samarkand, The Golem's Eye, Ptolemy's Gate — and then, and only then, the prequel. The Ring of Solomon is set two thousand years before the trilogy and appeared five years after it ended, which makes it look like the obvious place to start. It is not.
