Summary: Colfer Does It Again
Review: Well, here we have another fine Artemis Fowl book. This sequel came out shortly after the first book, we can only hope a third will come out soon. This book might be better than the first book because Holly and her gang have to team up with Fowl and Butler to save Artemis Fowl, Sr. However, I was slightly disappointed because the role of Butler was cut a bit, but hey, still a great book.

Summary: Artemis is in the Arctic!
Review: If you want to be thrilled and have an adrenalin rush, but unfortunately you've been grounded for "something you didn't do" and can't use the TV to watch a Bond movie, maybe you should pick up a book. I suggest you pick up Artemis Fowl, then for an extra adrenalin rush read Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident
Child criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl is back with a whole new adventure! His fortune is slightly bigger because in the past year he outsmarted the LEPrecon - the Lower Elements Police recon, an elite team of fairies, pixies, sprites and other magical lower element folk. They are responsible for keeping Heaven City, the last place that man hasn't taken over, safe. Even with their futuristic high-tech equipment Artemis still outsmarted them and got his hands on some fairy gold. Anyways, this story starts off when Artemis gets sent to a boarding school, where he gets an urgent video e-mail from the Russian mafia. The screen shows a man Artemis never thought he'd ever see again... his father, Artemis Fowl senior. Artemis figured that the Russian mafia kidnapped his father. Artemis is determined to rescue his father, but it is not going to be an easy task. Meanwhile, the LEP were having troubles of their own. Someone was providing goblins with softnose lasers, which could be dangerous. So Artemis makes a deal with the LEP that if he helps them with their crisis against the goblins, they would help him rescue his father. Can Artemis help the LEP and rescue his father? You'll just have to find out yourself.
I thought this book was awesome!!! It had all the ingredients of a great book: there was comedy, loads of action, it was interesting, a good plot, fairies and other folk, romance (just kidding) and plenty of high-tech gadgets. Reading this book was like if you put a Bond movie, a fairy tale and a sock puppet in a blender and turned it on and drank it. It would take a million-bazillion years to explain how amazing it was. I hope Eoin Colfer decides to write a third book for this series. I would give this book five and a half awesomes (which is just like five and a half stars).

Summary: Spellbinding!
Review: "Holly tucked a neutrino 2000 into it's holster, issuing commands through her helmets com-set:'code 14, reapeat code 14. Fairy down. Fairy down. We are under fire. E37. Send warlock medics and backup.' "
This is some LEPrecon squad fairy lingo from Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident. This is a book that makes you laugh out loud and read in amazement about a thirteen-year-old criminal mastermind, some very futuristic (and tempermental) fairies, very stupid goblins, criminal dealings in the arctic, the theft of Oscar award trophies in Los Angeles, deliciously evil pixies, and more. I liked this Artemis Fowl book better than the first one, because it had more surprises, and a more seasoned Artemis. The thing you don't really think about when you read this book is that Artemis is a criminal; you're not supposed to be rooting for him. But you find yourself watching the battle from both sides, enjoying every minute. The rendition of fairies/pixies/dwarfs/goblins/centaurs in this book is so original, and much cooler than any other way I've read about them. Eoin Colfer's pixies and fairies have been forced underground by the existence of 'mud men' (humans), nevertheless technologically developing their society that makes for some interesting sci-fi parts in the book. I would recommend this book to people aged eight to fourteen, and to fans of Garth Nix, Philip Pullman, J.K. Rowling and Gillian Rubinstein.

Summary: didn't do it for me
Review: Colfer could take lessons Robert Stanek on what it takes to create a great world and characters. Artemis Fowl has one thing going for it. That's that Artemis is a criminal boy genius but after 2 books the gimmack is old. The world is yucky. The characters aren't fun. In my heart I wanted to love this.

Summary: A real page-turner!
Review: This book is filled with adventure. Two enemies from the first book join forces to save Artemis' father. Holly Short of the LEPrecon squad must try to get along with Artemis Fowl, her worst enemy. Holly is not too happy about that. Neither is Artemis. In this sequel the characters are funnier. It's much easier to skip breakfast while reading it (I know how that is) because you're so deep in the story.

Summary: Good, but not that great.
Review: Artemis Fowl was an ok book. It didn't have the action I was looking for. The book seemed to have corny solutions to all of its conflicts.

Summary: stuff
Review: Artemis Fowl is great and here are a few reasons why. First, Artemis Fowl deals With "Super Technology". A total "must have" in my kind of book. Artemis Fowl has this because of a centaur named "Foaly". "Foaly "Is an absolute genius when it comes to technology and inventions. His inventions include the Time stopper, the Retimager , fairy Hummingbird Wings, and much more. Artemis Fowl is truly awesome. Another Reason why Artemis Fowl is a major favorite of mine is because of a 12 year old boy "Artemis" that is a genius and outwits every person who try's to outsmart him. For example , Artemis is just about to be " Bio-bombed", when he finds a way to save him and his friends by simply taking a sleeping pill in a glass of wine. A third and final reason why Artemis Fowl is so grand is because it is magical, exciting, funny, and got me back into reading. Thank you Eoin Colfer for making such a magnificent work of art. In conclusion these are just a few reasons why Artemis Fowl is my favorite book.
