Artemis - Child or Champion?

I have tried to get into Artemis Fowl many times, but this was the one that worked. Guess what I want for my birthday? THE WHOLE SET. If you like any genre of any book, this is the one for you. Read/listen away, and decide the question above.

Love hearing Nathaniel Parker

I love hearing Nathaniel Parker bring these characters alive. He makes the story just so enjoyable to listen to and get lost in.

Artemis Fowl

this book is about a child genius and when he first came in contact with the people (the people are fiarys) his goal was to get the family fortune back. but what he diden't know is that he would kidnap captain holy short of the l.e.p. recon and almost plunge the people and the mud men/humans into a cross-spycies war.

Awesome.

I love it. It's accually kinda refreshing to have a "protagonist" who isn't super honorable or obsessed with doing the right thing. Also, he's a genius, so yeah. Good for him.

Fun for All

This series has become one of my all time favorites. I would say only Potter ranks higher than this.

As a youth I was not much into reading. If I had these books when younger I would have spent far more time infront of book than the tv.

Read - Listen to them all. You will not regret it.

Good story

I listened to this story at work, and let my 12 year old daughter listen too. There is enough there for the grown-ups to not be bored and no yuck (cussing, sex...etc) for the kid...I am getting the other books in this series, thanks Audible!! <3 <3

Awesome :D

I was looking for a series both my 9 year old daughter & I could enjoy & both of us love the fairy magical realm. We found it in Artemis Fowl! Initially we were a bit worried about the darkness & the violent content but as we listened we found that Eoin tempered reality with humor & consequences that made it acceptable for us both. It has plenty of fascinating thoughtful details, imagination & humor along with sharp intellect & calculating strategy with touches of both the dark & the light. For a family who love SciFi/Fantasy/Mysteries yet are not ready for teenage topics or violence like 'The Hunger Games', 'Star Wars' etc this is a winner! Also Nathaniel Parker as narrator is extremely talented & breathes live into each individual character in such a way that they are completely real & believable. Have already bought the next 3 books!!!
