While in high school I read the first book and I was hooked! I wish I had the imagination of Eoin Colfer. I honestly wonder how he came up with his ideas and stories! In this book Artemis, a child genius and evil mastermind, creates this incredible cube. It is a super computer that is voice activated and controlled. I don't really need to give you a synopsis as you can read it on the description. I love these books and I am 21 years old!These books, in my opinion, cannot be catagorized by age. You fall in love with the characters so easily and you even fall in love with Artemis. Throughout the books you find that he really does have a heart even though it's hard to tell at times! I find myself wishing the books were true and Artemis was a real person! I would love to know of the world of fairies and even hook up with Artemis! Ha Ha! It's all the story of a fantasy with humor, twists, and if you're a daydreamer, all the curious thoughts you need! These books are highly recommended and many, many kudos to Eoin Colfer!!!!:)Read full review

Although this book was written mainly for young readers, everyone in our home has enjoyed it. What is NOT to love about a cute fairy who lives underground and has all the advanced weapons and gadgets kids fantasize about and an adolescent Einstein who has more money than Bill Gates? Humor and adventure abound. Kids love it and the parents can't put it down either!
Colfer is an exception fantasy fiction writer. His mastery of combining British culture with his comic book version of fairies is enchanting. His ability to combine fantasy and mystery/intrigue is enjoyable to read. One of the few writer to make the reader not wish to put the book down.
