I actually didn’t intend to read another of these so
quickly, but I happened across it while looking for another book and figured it
was a sign. It’s probably for the best
that I picked this up instead of the one that I was looking for; I needed
something light and funny to read.
The second in the Artemis Fowl series picks up a year after
the events of the first book. Since his
mother’s recovery, Artemis has been forced to attend school and stop running a
criminal empire. He is still searching
for his father even though everyone else presumes him dead. When he finally receives word that his father
is alive in the form of a ransom video from the Russian mob, Artemis and Butler
begin hatching a rescue plan.
Unfortunately, Artemis has been accused of interfering with the fairies
again, and has been detained by the LEPrecons until he proves his innocence.
This installment was just as much fun as the first one. Artemis is still a bit of a shit, but he has
lightened up in the past year, he might eventually develop a conscience. The books action is fast-paced and funny, I’m
really going to make an effort to get the others and finish the series.
