The world's youngest, brightest, and most dangerous criminal mastermind is back!

Artemis Fowl receives an urgent e-mail from Russia, In it is a plea from a man who has been kidnapped by the Russian Mafiya: his father. As Artemis rushes to the rescue, he is stopped by a familiar nemesis, captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon unit. Now, instead of battling the fairies, he is going to have to join forces with them if he wants to save one of the few people in the world he loves.

As I mentioned in Teaser Tuesday, I started to read Artemis Fowl series to convince my little sister that it's a good book. And I fell in love with Artemis character after a few pages in book 1.

In the last book, Artemis stole fairy gold from the 'people' and came out alive. In this book, Artemis met with Holly again and joined forces with the fairies. Artemis shall help the fairies with the trouble within LEP, and in exchange, the fairies would help Artemis to save his father.

Well there's one thing for sure: this book is better than the first one. This book is full of action and thrill with a few laugh-out-loud moment. I like how the author develop the character from the first book. Overall, it was an enjoyable read even for someone who rarely read YA genre like me.
