Description

Teenaged criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl has developed the Atlantis Complex, a psychological disorder causing paranoia and delusions, and he no longer trusts his closest friends. When he gathers the fairy elite to demonstrate his latest invention, his mental state has clearly deteriorated. A deadly attack is launched against the underwater fairy city of Atlantis, and the fairies must seek help from the unreliable Artemis to save their metropolis.

Quick Summary

Artemis Fowl battles his own mind when the Atlantis Complex turns him into a laugh-out-loud nervous wreck who suddenly loves dolphins and decor, all while trying to save an underwater fairy city from destruction. Kids will devour every page as Artemis teams up with his loyal bodyguard Butler and the fairy Holly Short in a race against time filled with zany technology, ridiculous psychological symptoms, and action sequences that keep pulses racing. If your kid loves the magical mayhem of Percy Jackson or the clever schemes in Harry Potter, they'll be hooked from page one. Perfect for middle graders ages 9-12 in grades 4-8 who enjoy humor mixed with high-stakes adventure.
