Summary:

Artemis Fowl is a wealthy twelve-year old child prodigy. Most would think that Fowl is content, but things are not as they seem. Artemis's father has been kidnapped by the Russian Mafia and has been missing for two years. To help fund search expeditions to Russia , Artemis has kidnapped a fairy, with help from his bodyguard Butler , from the secret underground fairy civilization and is holding her for ransom. The fairy police, the LEPrecon, then come in and try to rescue her without loss of life or loss of precious fairy gold. Full of twists and turns, Artemis Fowl is an exciting, action-packed read that has no equal. I give this adrenaline-pumping book five fish!
