Summary: Holy Cow, I'm not good with titles!
Review: When I read the first book in Eoin Colfer's highly addictive series I thought "eh" when I read the second, I thought "YEAH, this is good reading!" Quite the differance, I'd say. The first book wasn't the world's most well-written thing, but the plot was good and the carecters three-dimensional, but the sequel really blew me away. This thing is near Harry-Potter quality. The protaganist Artemis, has mellowed out in his old age(he's all of thirteen) and is much better to listen to for it! Holly is just as snappy as ever, still holding a slight vendetta against the Fowl heir. The two personalities bounce off each other throughout the narrative, making it a lively read. Secondary carecters are suitably defined, and it really is as funny as the first, the humor is just a little subtler, you have to dig for it but once you do, get ready to fallout of your chair. All in all, certainly worth your time (and the cover's pretty cool too) Eagerly awaiting the next and, sadly, final installment.

Summary: Very Very Good, Like the first one...
Review: In Artemis Fowl, Artic Incident, it is about a very intelligent boy, Artemis Fowl. He is from a rich family who have barely gotten their money in a honest way. He tricked the fairies into getting their gold from them. Most of that money was being used to search for his long lost father. Finally he got a video e-mail from the people who captured his father. After a long time not getting any word from his father, this was very exciting to him. It was untraceable and Artemis was left not knowing who it was. The fairies had a mystery to solve. They found goblins using weapons that had human batteries running them. This could mean some fairies were working with humans which means that the whole world could soon find out about fairies. This was a hard mystery. Immediately, they thought it was Artemis Fowl. They asked him to come with them and they read their minds. It didn't match. Then they asked him for help. He accepted in switch of them helping him and Butler out to rescue his father. They found out that someone from inside was involved in this scheme, but who? They went to the Arctic to try to rescue his father. Their placn was to capture one of the kidnappers and talk to him to find out more on the ransom. A goblin hit team was sent to kill Holly, Root who are the fairies, and Butler and Artemis. They had guns that worked but the fairies had guns that were sabotaged. The goblins shot at them and hit above the group. They hit the mountain side and a pile of snow and rocks fell onto the group. Butler used his good reflexes to throw Holly and Artemis to safety. Root barely made it, but Butler became buried in snow. They dug him up and healed him with their power. They canceled the rescue mission. Foaly, the centuar who was the person who looked over the group was captured. The fairy Cudgeon was one of the leaders of the plot to overthrow Root. Also OPal Kaboi was involved too. She was the one who invented many things and put in the LEP guns a sabotagable thing. They were the leaders. Foaly was captured. Then he would be framed and Cudgeon the hero. Then he would take over the world. Will he succeed? Find out by reading the book Artemis Fowl Arctic Incident.
I liked the excitement of the book. It is a fantasy book which makes it that more funner to read. I like the cunningness of Artemis Fowl. I like his wit, his ability to stay a step ahead of most things, and his intelligence. I enjoy reading about Butler. I wish I had a bodygaurd like him.
My favorite part was when Artemis Fowl was watching Mulch do his robbery work. Mulch would show him the works of the trade of stealing and opening safes. Artemis learned a lot from him and became smarter in a bad way.

Summary: Back and Better Than Ever
Review: Full of wit, magical technology, and a lot more action, this sequel to Artemis Fowl is just what you've come to expect of Eoin Colfer. Old characters return: Mulch Diggums(now living-and stealing-in LA), Trouble Kelp and his brother Grub, Foaly, and (briefly)Chix Verbil. A few new villans and some fairie politics keep the plot fast and furious, while Artemis (fresh from boarding school) and Butler team up with Holly and Comander Root to stop a smuggling ring. Oh, and rescue Artemis's father, MIA two years ago in a darkly humerous explosion aboard a cola-carring ship. The book itself is a work of art,and although this one lacks the gnomish code along the bottom, the cover is exceptionally well done.

Summary: Colfer discovers soap operas
Review: When I first received this book, I was more then excited. I thought that it would be a book that you could lose yourself into-one that wasn't too serious that the author couldn't make jokes and had a plot that always had a high on the suspense level.
To put it lightly, when I finally read it, this wasn't the book I was expecting. It seemed to be hastily written (at least compared to the first book), and was amazingly tedious.
Although it truly wasn't so horrible, if you put it next to some of the other books you can find, it was only moderately good. I believe that Eoin Colfer had TRIED to explore more emotional depth in his characters, yet he failed miserably. Three stars for effort!

Summary: As Magnificent as the first!!!
Review: If you liked the first Artemis Fowl book, you'll LOVE the second. Once again Artemis and the People create a page-turning book, only this time they are on the same side. I read this book in about two days and never wanted to put it down. I still go back through the book looking once again at my favorite parts. Harry Potter has competition! This book is a MUST BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Okay
Review: I loved the first book of this series. Loved it loved it loved it. When this book came out, I got so excited I rushed to the bookstore to get it. I started reading, and the book was great. Then it got worse, and worse, and finally it just got so boring I had no idea what was going on in the story. Some of the parts were good, it was nice seeing our old heros and heroines back, but the plot needed some work and the story needed to be told a little better. It was also funny reading about the fairy gadgets, and the slight humor.
My closing comments for this book it to rent it from the library for a few days. Other than that, this book is just plain okay.

Summary: A great book for children.
Review: I love this book. It keeps me reading into the night up to 11:30 when my parents have to keep telling me to go to bed. This book has lots of action. It has lots of cliffhangers at the end of each chapter. It is one of my favorite books. I reccomend this book to young adults willing to read a good book.

Summary: The Arctic Incident proves to be one of the best sequels
Review: This is the best sequel ever! It isn't as fast-paced as the first adventure was, but the storyline is much better! It was great to see Artemis and the fairies working together, and to see most of the previous miscellaneous characters return (ex. Mulch Diggums). I even liked how there is a surprise villain(s). All of the goblin fights are the best, and the end is dynamic! Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident is certainly a page-turner and a book that you can never put down! I can't wait for the third and final Artemis Fowl novel!
