Product Description |
|
Artemis's mother has contracted a deadly disease--and the only cure lies in the brain fluid of African lemurs. Unfortunately, Artemis himself was responsible for making the lemurs extinct five years ago. Now he must enlist the aid of his fairy friends to travel back in time and save them. Not only that, but he must face his deadliest foe yet...his younger self. |

This is my favorite of the series |
|
I've read that male writers tend to be more plot based and female writers more character based. Every time I read a book I've been noticing that this statement is true. Women writers portray more emotion in their characters and this is what makes them so interesting. Most of the Artemis Fowl books are plot based and this one is too, but there are more glimpses of internal conflict from Artemis in this book than the others. He realizes things about himself which he doesn't particularly like and this is exactly the kind of character writing I enjoy. |

My son, an avid reader, is 17. He was still eager to read the next Artemis Fowl book and did so as soon as it arrived. He was not disappointed. An advanced student in a private school studying Latin and Greek, the book was good enough to satisfy him. |

I bought this book for my 10 yr old son. It is part of the Artemis Fowl series. He finished this long book in 3 days! He coulnd't put it down! He tells me it is one of the best in the series. |

About as dull as reading a big boring science textbook! |
Is this book really for teens? I mean really? I think Eoin is targeting alot more of an audience than teens..make that money honey! It's a step up from the other books..more adult humor more adult vocabulary more adult everything.
Some of the paragraphs are so technical I had to read them two or three times! It's alot like a reading a big dull science text book alot of the time! I would think this would have a teen putting the book down pretty quickly. Ease up on the scientific technical mumbo jumbo Eoin!

Clever as always |
|
This book was very cunning, full of twists and turns and deceptions layered over lies, as that is what will happen when messing with time. Especially when written by Eoin Colfer, so never fear purchasing this book shall not be a waste of time or money. |
