Summary: Candice English book review
Review: When Artemis Fowl starts his 2nd adventure, he is at a bording school in Irland, when he receives a strange but desprete e-mail from a man Artemis thought he would never see again: his father. But while he is rushing off to save him he runs into Captian Holly of the LEPrecon fairy police. They will have to join forces to save the fairy city and Artemis's father.

I choose this book because I read the first one and I loved it, so I knew the 2nd was going to be just as good! And I also wanted to find out what happened to his father. The worst thing about this book was that some goblins and fairies ahd to die in the war they had.

The thing I learned was that you should fight for the people and the things you love.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Review on Artemis Fowl and the Arctic Incident
Review: Artemis Fowl's adventures continue. Artemis has gotten older and has matured. He finds out his father, Artemis Fowl Sr., has been taken for a ransom. So he has to join Holley and the other workers of Lep-recan to help save his father. Definitely a good book to read.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A DISAPOINTMENT!
Review: I read the first artemis fowl and it was great i couldn't find anything wrong with it. I couldn't put the book down as for this one its just a horrible sequal. I meen artemis and the fairies put all that behind them to save his father i just dont think it works that way there should be a book between the two. So it can explain in more detail why they actually decide to team up and also involving the mafia in an artemis fowl story? its just not right. I recomend the first but not the second

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Artemis Fowl and the adventure
Review: Artemis Fowl and the Artic incident

My book is about a criminal mastermind and millionaire. The name of my book is Artemis Fowl and the Artic incident. The main character is a 12 year old boy and his name is Artemis Fowl. Artemis lives in a manchan in London. He go's to a school in Ireland.
One day Artemis gets an email from Russia. It is about his father. His father had bin kidnapped. By the Russian mafia. His butler comes and picks Artemis up. They go on this this adventure to find Artemis dad. For them to get into Russia. They have to take an under ground train because you can't take an airplane. The mafia would know that. Artemis Fowl was in Russia and might kill his dad.
These are my opinions I think the author wrote in an English accent. The book stared off slow and had to get going. The chapters where set up well. With Eion Colfers book I think they start off slow and they are good at the end of the book. Like in his first book he stared out slow. This book is his second book.
I would recommend this book to 12 to 14 years old. Even groups read it to, I think the book starts off slow. At the end it was good. Kids that like books that are fantasy and crime and adventure. This is your type of book.
I liked the book. It wasn't my most favorite book. It has 14 chapters. The book has 270 pages. I had fun time writing this review. I hope you read the book.

Summary: Artemis Strikes Back
Review: In the sequel to what must be one of my favorite books, we start off with a scene where Artemis Fowl is at boarding school, being 'analyzed' by yet another school counselor. That is quickly interrupted when he gets a message from Butler; there is news of his father. In the beginning of the first book, Artemis's father had disappeared without a trace. There are now clues that he might be in Russia.
Of course, in Tara, the central Fairy City, there are more problems for Captain Short. The goblins are starting a rebellion and it appears they're getting help from a human. And the only human to keep his memory after an encounter with the fairies was; Artemis Fowl.
This setup leads to the joint efforts of Captain Short and Artemis Fowl who attempt to put aside their past differences. While not as full of intrigue as the first, 'The Arctic Expedition' is jam-packed with adventure and of course the fact the Artemis slowly growing older and is beginning to reach that stage called puberty. As the enemies slowly become friends and save each other time and time again, the situation gets more and more desperate. But of course, not so desperate a genius like Artemis Fowl can't fix or overcome it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The children's Renaissance continues.
Review: Children's literature was locked in preciousness, safety, and the avoidance of all the tumultuous, stewy reality of humanity for so long that I despaired of it ever coming to life again. Then J.K. Rowling detonated the dam (with books far less exciting than these, in my opinion), and the flood still sweeps me joyfully along. First the Beaudelaire brood and now Artemis Fowl have brought humanity back to the "children's" book (and brought back adult readers like me along with them). This book isn't as good as the first: it's the second book in a series, and that's simply inevitable. But it continues the work of the first, slaying cliches and bristling with joy and leading its genre to new heights.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Artemis Fowl and the Artic Incident
Review: It wasn't quite as good as the first, but I liked the way Eoin Cofler mixed laughter and action in this book. Every charachter in this book is charming to read about. A real page-turner, I could not put this book down!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The feelings of a child
Review: This was another excellent book by Eoin Colfer. I have read his first Artemis Fowl book and it completely changed the way I felt about all of the characters in the book. I am 13, and as it is a childrens book, I don't think any adult can give this a bad judgement. I finished it after 3 days which isn't my fastest but one of them, it was a thrilling story line and I rushed through it. I saw the more vunerable and kind side of Artemis, the protective brotherly/fatherly response of Butler and the charm and courage of Root, Holly and Foaly.
In reply to another review that I read, this book cannot be compared to Harry Potter books. Harry Potter uses the traditional and educational view of fantasy and fictional tales of old, where as this shows the world turned upside down by a modernized superior secret underground. I give this 5/5 because that is what it deserves after the feeling I had once finished it. Thank you Eoin Colfer
