Description

|
|
|
Artemis has committed his entire fortune to a project he believes will save the planet and its inhabitants, both human and fairy, in this seventh title in the series. Has goodness taken hold of the world's greatest teenage criminal mastermind? More likely, he's suffering from Atlantis Complex, a psychosis common among guilt-ridden fairies—not humans—and most likely triggered by Artemis's dabbling with fairy magic. Symptoms include obsessive-compulsive behavior, paranoia, multiple personality disorder and, in extreme cases, embarrassing professions of love to a certain fairy commando. Artemis Fowl is a criminal mastermind who possesses arcane knowledge of the true existence of leprechauns, trolls, and other magical creatures, and even cracked the code of the fairies' spell book—all by the age of 12. The heir to a centuries-old empire of underworld figures and con artists, Artemis is determined to regain his family's lost prestige and power using magic and his own criminal genius—which pits him squarely against Captain Holly Short, fairy commando of the crack LEPrecon unit, who normally packs enough firepower to level mountains. Former elementary school teacher Eoin Colfer describes his Artemis Fowl stories, for readers 10 and up, as "Die Hard with fairies." "Colfer keeps the action moving with laughs and gadgetry as he bounces between several plotlines that spotlight peripheral characters. A treat for series fans."—Booklist
