Suprisingly Addicting

After reading all of the Harry Potter Books and finishing all the Narnian books through Audible I needed a new book to read. I stumbled upon Artemis Fowl and at first I didn't know what to think of this snobby 12 year old know it all genius. Honestly I didn't like him and the whole fairy and criminal thing threw me off, but I invested my credit and figure I'd listen to it. I am so happy I did and I can't stop listening to the series. I love how you never really know what is going to happen next or what tricks Artemis has up his sleeves. You want to know how he gets himself out of tough situations with his ingenious solutions. I love all of the series and I always look forward to hear more of Foley, Holley, Root, Artemis, Butler, and my favorite character of them all Mulch Diggums.

Nice Series for youth or adults

During the longs years of Harry Potter drought, it is nice to come across a series that invokes some of the same magic. Not at all like Harry Potter in plot, it engages from the first few minutes. I admit that I had to relisten to some sections due to the complicated plot, but it was original and unpredictable. It is filled with nuanced characters. The voice performance was transparent, as it should be.

Great book, great narrator!

You can't go wrong with the Artemis Fowl series. It's a great series for kids and adults. Very funny, creative, and fun!

I read the books a while back and loved them. I've enjoyed listening to them just as much -- the narrator (Nathaniel Parker) is so great, I look for other things he's narrated.

Love these Books

I have read these books several times and am now relistening to them. Fascinating characters and even more interesting character archs over the course of the series.
