My overall opinion: Wow. I didn’t quite know what to expect when I started this book, and now, having finished it, I still don’t quite know whether or not I really liked it! It was very interesting and I couldn’t put it down…but Artemis Fowl is (to be blunt) a brat! Albeit a very smart one. He was so annoying. But not so much I stopped enjoying the book. I think I enjoyed it…and I think I will read more from the series – there are a great many books, seven or eight I believe. Overall, it was clean – maybe a little swearing (I can’t remember, but it was gentle if so) and some mildly inappropriate material relating to body functions. The type a 10-year old boy is likely to enjoy. :P But mostly, clean and fun and interesting and a little strange.
