best. series. ever. do yourself a favor and pick this up. artemis fowl is the best! too bad he becomes nicer at the end... (not sure if im joking or not) he was cooler when he was more evil. Evil psychotic criminal masterminds forever!!! mwahahahahaha!!!!

Kids smarter than Mozart at the age of 12 - don't skip these series, people!

AMAZING and Eion Colfer makes even better AF

A unique, clever book that tells you the story from the villain’s point of view. Antihero Artemis is one of my favourite main characters and I would recommend at least giving this book a try.

I've read this book so many time that I've almost memorized the story. Even so it's an unforgetable book that anyone would enjoy. Sadly the last book in the series is releasing summer of 2012.It is title the Last Gaurdian.Oh and to all the Fowl Fans out there if you try to skip book 6 the Time Paradox you will regret it greatly.

Good Book, 'you don't know what your dealing with human'

Nice book. It is a story that can master your mind

artemis fowl is such agood book-- artemis himslef is such an interesting character. a twelve year old mastermind with the dialect of a much older genius. I recomend this one, although the sequels tend to loose the writing quality, I don't know if Eoin colfer originally intended for Artemis fowl to be a series. the first book stands on its own though. a great read!

I absolutely love this book! I've read it many MANY times and it's still a lot of fun. The characters are well... interesting and unique -- very intriguing! Although Artemis is only twelve years old in the novel, this is a trivial detail which is easily forgotten as you are drawn into the story! I highly recommend this book to anyone of any age who enjoys a mixture of magic, witty dialogue, and high-tech gadgets (these being only a few things that are great about the novel)! :D

artemis is so cool i recomend u buy it if you like fantsies,12 year old criminal master minds,adventures,faries and science fiction enjoy reading
