This book is the first installment to the Artemis Fowl series.
The storyline revolves around an eleven year old criminal mastermind, who wishes to be the greatest criminal mastermind in his family. But his methods are somewhat...unusual.
He knows that fairies exist. And they aren't the cute little fairies of bedtime stories. They're armed and dangerous. Even the females.
Take Holly Short for example. She's the only female in the LEPrecon- Lower Elements Police Recon. Her superior officer is hard on her. She's not your typical fairy female. She's the dangerous kind.
Add that to Julius Root, who is Holly's boss, and Foaly, the paranoid centaur genius, and you get a bundle of laughter.
Don't get your stomach too tight from laughing, or you'll gas up the place, like Mulch Diggums, the kleptomaniac dwarf (No offense).
Overall, the writer has combined good word usage with strong characterisation and humour, and has created the ultimate book for readers in their teens or pre-teens.
My rating on this book : 9/10 (Must read)
