Customer Reviews

an Artemis Fowl series Must

While I originally bought this for my little brother, I ended up absconding with it myself as an avid Artemis Fowl fan. This is the equivalent of a Behind the Scenes, never seen before footage clip, but for the book series. You can also finally decipher the fairy glyphs if you hadn't done so before!

The Fowl Artemis

I bought this book for a group of boys who just love the series. I gave it a "4 star" because it has not been checked out yet. The boys have looked at it but have checked out the others in the series that I ordered.

Atemis Fowl Files was a great success!

The Artemis Fowl Files is a guide on the first couple books to the Artemis Fowl series. The hundred-page book included two short stories on the lives of Corporal Holly Short and the somewhat successful theif Mulch Diggums, before Artemis Fowl revealed his threat the the fairy world. These two stories are must-reads to Artemis Fowl fans, because of the old charecters put into younger points of view that keep the main points, such as Holly's stubbornness to Mulch's not-so-flattering comments, so that they see the two and their enviornment afresh in a loving way. Also included are diagrams of the LEP helmet and a few other inventions, a quiz to see what type of fairy you are most like, and interviews on Holly, Artemis, Root, Butler, Mulch, and Foaly.

This book was pretty cool. It had a decoder thing for those symbols at the bottoms of the pages of the Artemis Fowl books. If you love Artemis Fowl, this book is a must-have.

Great for an Artemis Fowl lover

This is an extremely good book with lots of info about Artemis Fowl and his croonies. Though i would strictly recommend this book to those who have read all the books. It gives info and some sketches about Foaly's inventions, interviews with all the characters including Eoin Colfer himself, a hilarious report card of none other than Artemis Fowl, and has two wonderful story's along with it. That's just some examples of the wonderful story's crosswords, quizzes, and interviews inside this book.

The Files of Artemis Fowl are GREAT!!!

The book might look small (about 200 pages) when you get it but it is a great way to know everything about the Artemis Fowl Series. It has 2 short stories (LEPrecon and The Seventh Dwarf) which are great for reading something that won't take a long time. It has the Gnommish Alphabet and 3 pages to translate from Gnommish to English from the Fairy Book. It also tells you how to spot an elf, dwarves, trolls, goblins, centaurs, sprites, and pixies. Another thing it has are great interviews with many characters and with Eoin Colfer! Lastly, it has many other fun activities which are: Artemis Fowl's School Report, a fairy quiz, it tells you where the fairy transport locations are, some of foaly's cool inventions, and a crossword puzzle and a word search. This is a great guide to know everything about the Fairy world and about the Artemis Fowl Series. I recommend it!!!
