Artemis Fowl

Artemis Fowl

Eoin Colfer

Irish children's writer Eoin Colfer came up with the character of a boy anti-hero in a fantastic setting of a fairy world which, unlike ancient fairy tales, has been modernized with the technology of the future.

All the worries of the world seemed to fall on the fragile shoulders of twelve-year-old Artemis Fowl. His father, otherwise the head of an Irish criminal organization, died after a dubious deal with the Russian mafia. His mother's mind simply went blank with grief. With the help of two loyal servants, Butler and Juliette, Artemis will have to miss the new school year and take control of the family estate and affairs.

But Artemis Fowl is not an ordinary twelve-year-old, he is still his father's son, highly educated, supernaturally cunning and brought up not to choose any means on the way to the goal, neither laws, nor moral considerations, nor terrifying opponents will prevent him from getting his hands on a ton of gold.

Following a series of almost invisible clues, Artemis Fowl discovered that the fairy world really exists, got hold of the fairy book of spells and rules, and planned to kidnap the real fairy, if he could ask for a rich ransom for her according to the complex rules of fairy society. When he actually succeeds, he will find that he actually kidnapped Holly Short, a member of the special elven police force. It looks like Artemis Fowl will finally meet a worthy, if rather charming, opponent.
