ARTEMIS FOWL'S CRIMINAL WAYS HAVE FINALLY GOT THE BETTER OF HIM . . .
Young Artemis has frequently used high-tech fairy magic to mastermind the most devious criminal activity of the new century. Now, at a conference in Iceland, Artemis has gathered the fairies to present his latest idea to save the world from global warming. But Artemis is behaving strangely - he seems different. Something terrible has happened to him . . . Artemis Fowl has become nice. The fairies diagnose Atlantis Complex (that's obsessive compulsive disorder to you and I) - it seems dabbling in magic has damaged Artemis' main his mind. Fairy ally Captain Holly Short doesn't know what to do. The subterranean volcanoes are under attack from vicious robots and Artemis cannot fight them. Can Holly get the real Artemis back ---before the robot probes destroy every human and life form? This eagerly-awaited adventure is now out in paperback with a fabulous new cover-look to celebrate ten years of Artemis action.

Artemis Fowl fans will likely enjoy the continued humor and perseverance of the characters that we have grown to love. Artemis, Butler, Juliet, Holly, Foley, and Mulch all figure prominently in the adventure. However, this seventh installment in the Artemis Fowl series introduces the concept of thralls and runs (magic with very little magic), a new super fairy villain, a fairy space program, and a strange disorder. It's almost too much. Still an interesting story, but less captivating.
I could barely stay engaged with the story because of so many things that appeared to be out of step with the world that Eoin Colfer had so diligently created in stories 1 through 5 (6 introduced time travel and a new species, so it was a bit off as well).
I would recommend that readers just skip this one, but I have not yet read #8.
Not my favorite Artemis book. Plot of the book felt like a sub-plot that didn't make it into a previous book. A little too easy to predict events, etc.
Still a fun read, but not my favorite.
