Description/Blurb:
The evil pixie Opal Koboi has spent the last year in a self-induced coma, plotting her revenge on all those who foiled her attempt to destroy the LEPrecon fairy police. And Artemis Fowl is at the top of her list. After his last run-in with the fairies, Artemis had his mind wiped of his memories of the world belowground. But they have not forgotten about him. Once again, he must stop the human and fairy worlds from colliding – only this time, Artemis faces an enemy who may have finally outsmarted him.
My Thoughts:
The Opal Deception by Eoin Colfer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Artemis Fowl returns. This time, he has no memory of having ever met the People before, and yet once again, he finds himself in a mess that puts him directly in contact with them.
Followers of the series will recall that, at the end of Eternity Code, our criminal genius friend had agreed to a mind wipe in exchange for the fairies help with retrieving his stolen property.
But a series of events will soon jog Artemis’ memory and it will happen just in the nick of time to save the world yet again.
These stories are creatively written and well thought out. The world the author has created in these stories is one that will find it’s home in the collective hearts and minds of many readers, regardless of age or genre preferences.
These stories are fun and exciting and full of adventure. Some of the content might be a little rough for younger middle-grade readers, so use caution when providing these books to your children.
