Artemis Fowl |
||||||||||
|
Twelve-year-old "Artemis Fowl" is the most ingenious criminal mastermind in history and, with his trusty sidekicks Butler and Juliet in tow, he hatches a cunning plot to divest the fairyfolk of their pot of gold. His bold and daring plan is to hold a leprechaun to ransom. But he takes on more than he bargained for when he kidnaps Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon (Lower Elements Police Reconnaissance Unit). Add to that the fact that Holly is a true heroine and that her senior officer, Commander Root, will stop at nothing to get her back and you've got the mother of all sieges brewing! The resulting high-octane mix of folklore, fantasy and technology is a a rip-roaring, 21st-century romp of the highest order, which can only be described as "Die Hard with fairies"! |
