Evil pixie, Opal Koboi, is back and she's more dangerous than ever. This time she doesn't ... more
just want power over the fairy People - this time she wants the humans too. Captain Holly Short is the only fairy with a hope of stopping her, but as Holly knows, it takes one genius criminal mastermind to fight another.
This fourth outing for Eoin Colfers teenage criminal mastermind, Artemis Fowl, is--as ... more
ever--full of dramatic action, explosions, treachery, high speed chases, windy escapes from Trolls and a generous helping of fairy magic. There are plenty of laughs amidst the action and more new technical gizmos than you could fit into James Bonds latest car. At the end of Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code, Artemis was left with his memory erased of all previous dealings with the fairy folk, any underground realms he may have visited, a certain LEPrecon police officer called Holly Short he may have been acquainted with--even the flatulent, burrowing, kleptomaniac dwarf, Mulch Diggums. Everything. It was part of the deal he struck when he helped save the fairies and they aided his rescue of Fowl Snr. from captivity. But, having been accused of a heinous crime, Holly now needs Fowls expertise once more to clear her name and save Fairykind from oblivion. Opal Koboi, the most dangerous pixie who ever lived, has eluded capture and is out for revenge. Shes framed Holly and tried to kill Artemis and his trusty bodyguard Butler. Holly must try to bring Artemis up to speed quickly in order to foil Opals dastardly plan to expose the fairies down below to the humans on top. Like J K Rowling, Colfer has complete mastery over the cast of characters he has created in this popular series of novels. Half of the pleasure of the Harry Potter novels is to be had by simply enjoying how the familiar characters interact--savouring their established foibles and characteristics and revelling in all the new things they get up to. In The Opal Deception, Colfer pairs up his heroes and villains brilliantly and has the same amount of tremendous fun with them. Its witty and enjoyable and will be appreciated by all.

Review of Artemis Fowl and the Opal Deception - Eoin Colfer
Advantages: Absolutely fantastic read. Like nothing Fowl fans will have read before. Disadvantages: Some may think it has lost that "Artemis Fowl" touch
...dare ignore it."
"I'll save Artemis next," said Holly, and squeezed the trigger.
Holly hit the red spot. She was certain of it.
"I hit it!" she shouted. "I hit the spot!"
"I don't know. I thought you were a fraction low," said the voice. "Hard luck. And I mean that sincerely."
"No!" screamed Holly.
The countdown on Root's chest ticked faster than before, flicking through the numbers. There were only moments left now.
The Commander struggled ... ...And with the brains of Artemis Fowl at his disposal, the oppertunities are endless.
His style has not changed one bit. Plenty of action, puzzle's and suspense all rolled into one. The world of fairies, magic, dwarf talents and various weapons has returned in a stunning sequel to The Eternity Code. Colfer has, once again, taken full advantage of what was left in the previous book and used it to weave a new story. If new is the correct word.
Now, ...

Advantages: it is a continued high standered Disadvantages: none
I love this book as with the first three i found it to be apropriate for both adults and children. I have been reading the Fowl books for many years now and am always disappointed when people compare them to the Harry Potter books because it is its own story comparing it to another set of books just sets it up for failure. The plot of this book is not as interesting as the last three but it is made up for by Colfer's subtle humor. A previous Knowladge ... ...the three others then i would advise you do so before you try this one. so all in all it is a nice sequal and even though it is not Harry Potter,not that it is trying to be, it is well worth a read if only to find out what happens to our beloved charactors!!!!!!!! ...
