Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

[Nadia]

Artemis Fowl is a criminal mastermind. Aside from that, he is a genius with all the textboook answers to any question you'd dare to ask. He is only twelve years old.

Journey into a world of part-fantasy, part-mystery with Artemis as he tries means and ways to part the fairy-folk from their gold. It is fantasy in a modern world. Fast-paced with short and precise descriptions, you will never be bored for a second.

I urge all readers to start reading the series of four books. You will never regret it.

Read it, just finished 'Opal Deception.' Loved Artemis, a real anti-hero. Loved all the characters, and more precisely how the 'folk' elements were joined with the 'hi-tech' modern world.

I adore these books and especially the character. I cannot wait for the next one-- Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony. The writing is witty. Another good book from Eoin Colfer is The Wish List.
