NOOOOOO, Butler and Holly dies, oh okay, Holly doesn't die. *lets out a sigh of relief*
I haven't gotten the latest book yet. and read it. I want to but I can never seem to get to a book store or a public library. I have most of the school libaray books.

Hmm same problem here that's why i just downloaded the book off the internet after paying some cash. I could e mail it to you if you want Kaylyn??

I LOVED the Infinity Code. It was so original I overlooked the shallow characters and paper thin plot. It was the first Artemis I read, and I thought his character was really interesting. The whole owning the pyramids bit at the beggining of the book was the perfect hook.

*spoilers* Artemis freezes Butler with a cryogenic ice thing! Buter turns old! Butler's sister, a fairy, and this mole thing break into a hightech millionare's skycraper to retrieve a pricelessly advanced supercomputer! Then ZOMG everyone loses their memory!

After that Artemis was just lifeless and never developed from there onwards. The whole demon thing came out of nowhere (though No1 was interesting), everyone got their memory back way too quick, the villian was a cliched, one-dimensional evil tyrant with no depth whatsoever, and No1's fate was unclimatic and unsatisfying.

I haven't read the latest book lately so I'll guess I'll read the newest one soon, even tough the whole time paradox just seems like a rehash of the memory erasure arc.

Well you have a few points there but is still is a good series.
Specially the latest book where a long waited moment of many readers occured.

[spoiler]Holly Kisses Artemis[/spoiler]

And of course the plot was a little old by the time although it had many turns.

[spoiler]Turns out Opal was behind it again.[/spoiler]

The first spoiler in the post above wasn't done as nicely as I would have liked.
It came out of nowhere. Sure I knew it was probably going to happen but it was kinda... tacked in there.

Though the relationship after...
[spoiler] Artemis admits he tricked Holly into helping[/spoiler]
Was pretty interesting.

I love Eion Colfer's books. Anyone who likes Artemis should read Airman....

I know and then

[spoiler]She breaks up with him and becomes the Holly that met Artemis the first time, the angry mud people hating kind.[/spoiler]

So yeah i guess so. But who knows if the books to come will be more interesting.

Wait I just read the latest Artemis Fowl book. Holly or Butler doesn't die. *glares accusingly* you lied.

I lied?? I lied i don't think i even said that. Did i??

I still love those books, but I have to admit, the last one wasn't quite as good as the others. Can we have some new villains, plz? XD

I really love this series! I met the author last summer, and have since been very annoying about it.

I think that the character development is excellent (the way Artemis and Holly become friends is great) My favorite book was the fourth, as I really love Opal Koboi as a villain. I think that the one place that Eoin Colfer messed up a bit, was in the fifth book. It didn't tie in with the rest of the series very well.

However, I think he redeemed himself with the final book, which really brought the series full circle and tied it all together nicely. I also liked how he used Opal again, making her the 'main villain' of the series.

wait wait how did you mean the author exactly again??

I just love the Artemis Fowl series. I also have The Artemis Fowl Files in my possession. I know how to read Gnommish, but the problem is I can't write in Gnommish. If you don't believe me, ask Pundit to ask me on your behalf.

I can't wait to read the very last book. That's the only one I don't have, because I need to wait for more allowance...Sounds cool, though.
