...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 ...

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!!!!!!!! ...
