Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer


SYNOPSIS:  Artemis Fowl is a spoiled rich boy, who has gone bad.  His current objective is to discover what he can about the Fairy world, and blackmail them to get their gold.

AUNT SHARON'S TAKE:  I wasn't a big fan of this, but I think it just wasn't my style.  If I remember right, there was some language, as well as some bathroom humor in it.  Also, there is a character that smokes a cigar.  However, I think that for boys, especially, it makes a fun combination of modern-day technology with ancient fairy tales.

RATING:  PG with Violence and rude humor

AUDIENCE:  Teens

STARS:  2

BOOKS LIKE THIS:  Percy Jackson, Fablehaven
