Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident - Book #2

by Eoin Colfer

Disney Book Group | May 1, 2003 | Trade Paperback

Artemis is at boarding school in Ireland when he suddenly receives an urgent video-email from Russia. In it is a plea from a man who has been kidnapped by the Russian Mafiya: his father.

But this time, instead of battling the fairies, he is going to have to join forces with them if he wants to save one of the few people in the world he loves.

    A couple of years ago I read the first Artemis Fowl book and was not impressed at all. I've been told the books get better after the first so I thought I'd see for myself. I'm pleased to say that I did enjoy this book. Artemis is a much nicer person in this book who learns about friendship and respect. Artemis joins forces with the fairy people to first save them from a goblin takeover and second to try to rescue Artemis' father. I really enjoyed the world in which the fairies inhabit alongside the mundane world. This book read very much like a James Bond movie with non-stop spy adventures including such characters as centaurs, pixies, dwarfs, leprechauns, goblins. Hopefully the third book will be even better.

    I heard that the next Artemis Fowl book had come out and really freaked out. I was a little afraid that this book wouldn't live up to the first one, but it really did. It was amazing in every way, and except for the fact that there were no prophecies on the bottom of the page to decode, every bit as good as the first book. I am so excited for the movie whenever it comes out. Read The Arctic Incident!
