Artemis Fowl

Just when I needed another series of books to get in to. Amber tells me to reads the Artemis Fowl series. I bought the first one when I got Breaking Dawn and thought I would give it a try.

At first the first book was hard for me to get in to. It's introducing characters and such. What most first books do. After a while I started reading it and got in to it. Artemis Fowl is twelve-years-old in this one and is a criminal mastermind. He's taken over the family business since his dad has been missing for two years and his mom is a little insane after loosing him. Artemis and his body gaurd, Butler, eventually meet up with the fairy world and things commence. It's very entertaining, I think.

Then I got a hold of the second book. This one is a lot better to read because you don't have to sit through the character introductions. Artemis and Butler this time are trying to save his father from the Russion Mafyia. Along the way they meet up with the fairy folk again and this time both worlds have to work together to get both of their goals accomplished. It's a lot of fun. And I'm on the third book. As of right now there are six out. I'm not sure how many there are supposed to be, but I intend on reading them.
