What I love about Artemis Fowl is that, unlike Harry Potter, good things don't just happen to him because he was born special. Things happen his way because he's smart - he thinks ahead and he always out-plans his opponent. And he's just a kid. I've always loved books about an invincible kid hero. (think: Ender) But don't read these books looking for Ender. :-) Artemis is a criminal who makes just enough truly good decisions to keep him interesting all the way through.

This book, Artemis Fowl: And the Eternity code by Eoin Colfer, was a cracking good read. After having read the past books, this one is my favorite because it has well written humor and a great plot that keeps you hooked from the beginning. The series is about Artemis Fowl, a young criminal genius that comes in contact with the fairies that live below ground.

On this book, the author uses great imagination when he makes Artemis use the fairy technology he stole in the first book to create something he calls a C-Cube, a piece of technology far beyond ours that lets you control everything that is on the web. Artemis goes to Chicago in hopes of extending his founds by selling it to businessman Jon Spiro. The author introduces us the plot when Spiro steals the Cube and makes us even more hooked into it when Spiro's bodyguard shoots Butler (Artemis' bodyguard and friend). This becomes a problem, but Artemis manages to freeze Butler and uses help from fairy officer Holly Short to then revive him.

Artemis then asks Holly Short and his fairy friends to help him regain the Cube by entering Jon Spiro's top head security building. This is when the story begins to get exciting, since the best part is how Artemis' plan just fits right in with every single aspect and detail of what happens, and the author made a great job by making Artemis' plan just hit you in the gut when it all works out.

In the end, Artemis manages to get into the top security vault and regains the Cube, and Eoin brings even more justice into the story when Artemis bankrupts Spiro's company in the process. The reader feels as if all he has read is gone when Artemis gets his mind wiped out, making all memories of fairies disappear. In the end however, the author fills us with hopes of reading the next book when yet another of Artemis' great schemes will make him regain it in the future.

I recommend this book for everyone, since it really is a good read and when you (or at least I did) finish reading it, you will just wish that it goes on.(less)

This book, as the rest in the Artemis Fowl series is, falls under the category of fantasy. This book in particular demonstrates the fantasy aspect with impossible technologies; however it still blends the element of realism quite well. The Eternity Code is another edition in the Artemis Fowl series that once again pits the shady, underground Fairy race against some very greedy humans, including Artemis himself.
As with many other stories in the series, this one begins with Artemis planning a jest to sell the Eternity Cube to the infamous Jon Spirro at a lunch meeting. Artemis was a young child, and was often misjudged for this, as seen by his statement, “No, mademoiselle, I would not like to see the children's menu. I have no doubt that the children's menu itself tastes better than the meals on it. I would like to order ? la carte. Or don't you serve fish to minors?” (Colfer, 2) Despite being such a sophisticated kid, he did make quite the mistake of losing the Cube to Spirro, in a fantastic fight where Artemis nearly loses his bodyguard, Butler. Much of the story for Artemis is spent in an attempt to try and regain possession of the very powerful Fairy Cube.
Throughout the rest of the story, Artemis and his crew, teamed up with the underground fairies, are trying to regain possession of the cube. As said by Artemis himself, “Together we will be unstoppable.” (Colfer, 78) Banded together with his own team and with the fairies, Artemis had no doubt that he would be able to stop Spirro. Through the rest of the story, they try to undermine Spirro, cleverly using his rival company, Phonetix, to try and get the cube back. Overall, I found the whole plot to be very intriguing, and lead to a very interesting downfall to Jon Spirro.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the story Artemis Fowl, The Eternity Code. By making a very interesting story, combined with a very futuristic focus, I found it very enjoyable. I found the character Artemis to be very fascinating, being incredibly clever for a 13 year old. Rather obviously, when Artemis used his intelligence, like when he saved Butler, were some of my favorite parts. In conclusion, this is an epic story about Artemis trying to regain control of the Fairy Cube, and is surely a book that fits the series well with its incredible story.

I have many reasons to support this, which you will see later, but at the moment you need some background information on the book. The Artemis Fowl series begins with the twelve year old criminal genus Artemis himself. He come in contact with the fairies, and kidnaps one of their officers, leading to the rest of the plot. The second book continues when the fairies call upon for help in a rebellion. This leads up to the third book when Artemis sets out with a business proposition with the fairy technology. The technology gets stolen and this sets off a chain of event involving the fairies for the third time. My reasons for this book being so good is that it keeps readers entertained and in suspense, it mixes the good with the criminal and it brings mythical creatures into the picture.
My first reason for The Eternity Code being so good is that it is very entertaining. It does this in many ways, with the crazy plans of Artemis, the jokes of Mulch and the way Juliet handles things. One example that demonstrates this idea is when Mulch insults two idiots, with emphasis on idiots. They know so little that is makes it funny in the quote said by one of the two, “Baloney? Hey, that’s an insult! Are you insulting us little man!” This line is just one small example of the humorous sections of the story. They are many more in the book, including when Mulch has to use a fart missile. This is why the book becomes so entertaining.
Another reason why this book should be read is that it keeps the readers in suspense. The author tells the readers so little to increase this aspect. The readers know so little of the plan to retrieve the stolen fairy technology. This makes it so intense. Another reason it is intense, is the part of the plan readers do know about is so crazy that there is so much that could go wrong. A quote about Juliet demonstrates this. It says, “She checked her watch. It might already be too late.” This just adds another aspect to intensify the story. The intensity of this story makes it hard to put down and such a great book.
This book also mixes good and bad, making it an even better book to read. The criminal mind of Artemis and the good doing of the fairies provide a new point of view of the whole story. While some characters are reluctant of this, it would not be the same without the good and the bad. A conversation in the book can easily demonstrate this. This conversation is between Artemis and the fairy commander. The conversation starts with the commander saying, “Do you plan on using the convict?” followed by Artemis saying “That depends… whether you give me Holly.” When the commander allows Holly to join, that is when the real good and bad mix begins. This quote also shows how the police force and the convict aka Mulch must work together to make things work. This mix provides a very different view of the book.
My final reason is the incorporation of mythical characters. Of all books read by young adults and teens, ones involving mythical characters tend to be the most popular. For example, the Fablehaven series has many mythical characters and is still a big hit in readers today. I especially enjoy how the author brings the characters in the first books. This series would be a lot less exciting if it was just a normal police force was against Artemis Fowl, but instead it is a fairy police force. An example of proof is when Artemis says”Mulch Diggums… just the dwarf I wanted to see.” There are seven types of fairies and dwarfs are just one of them. Bringing in these creatures makes the book much more interesting.
Some people may say this book doesn’t explain everything soon enough and that it has a bad ending. Parts of this are true; however any good reader will accept these changes and be patient for an explanation and for the next book.
In conclusion, the book The Eternity Code is a great read for people of all ages. Not only does it contain entertainment and intensity, but it also it brings good working with bad and mythical creatures. It is books like this that can help bring young adults to read more, helping them along in the future.

So when the threat against the Fairy World this time is a ruthless tycoon Jon Spiro, the danger becomes very real.

In this third installment to Eoin Colfer's funny, fast-paced, fairy-filled adventure series, boy genius and arch criminal Artemis Fowl once again can't resist plotting the perfect crime--and, once again, he can't keep from stirring up so much trouble that the fate of the entire fairy world teeters in the balance.

Amazon.com Review

The once hard-boiled Artemis has softened a bit between his bestselling debut and the seat-of-your-pants Arctic Incident, and that trend continues in The Eternity Code: He's still plotting for a billion-dollar-plus payoff for the Fowl family, but now his enemies are human (chiefly Jon Spiro, a ruthless businessman Artemis tries to blackmail using stolen fairy technology) and he has to turn to his old adversary-turned-friend Captain Holly Short and cutpurse dwarf Mulch Diggums for help. The dialogue and action prove as smart and page-turning as ever this time around, with Artemis struggling to bring his faithful bodyguard Butler back from the dead before racing Mission Impossible-style to triple-cross the double-crossing Spiro.

Colfer's young antihero might be getting more likeable all the time, but that hasn't taken the edge off the Tom-Clancy-meets-Harry-Potter action. Artemis has to agree to a memory-erasing "mind wipe" from the People after helping them recover their technology, but only a foolish fan would count Artemis out after this blockbuster "final heist." Book four can't come soon enough.... (Ages 9 to 12) --Paul Hughes

From School Library Journal

Grade 5-8-Antihero Artemis Fowl, now 13 years old, is back. He has used stolen fairy technology to create a supercomputer known as the "C Cube," which will render all existing technology obsolete. He meets with Jon Spiro, head of "Fission Chips," with a proposition. For a price, he will suppress his cube, and allow Spiro time to sell his potentially worthless stocks and buy into Fowl Industries. Spiro double-crosses Artemis, and in the ensuing melee he steals the C Cube and Artemis's bodyguard, Butler, is murdered. The scene is totally out of James Bond; one fully expects to hear the familiar theme music and to see the credits as it concludes. The action does not let up as Artemis teams with the fairy policewoman Captain Holly Short and other companions to bring Butler back to life, and then to retrieve the Cube from Spiro's Chicago fortress. The plot is filled with crosses and double crosses, unmarked vans, and impenetrable security systems. It's exciting stuff, but the writing is often clich‚d at worst, and merely workmanlike at best. Butler's death scene is particularly hackneyed, echoing every overly dramatic death scene one can think of. Still, this latest adventure is sure to be popular with fans of the series.

While Artemis and the faeries have somewhat of an understanding with each other, one could say Artemis Fowl is too brilliant to stop scheming. Using stolen faerie technology, Artemis builds technology of his own. In his attempt to profit off it, however, Artemis's invention is stolen by Jon Spiro, a businessman who plans to take the credit--and profits--for himself. Artemis and Holly must work together once more to save both their worlds.
