Finally, after months and months of thinking, I have finally found the force to buy and start reading this series. Artemis Fowl is more than a trilogy of fantasy novels written by Irish author Eoin Colfer, starring the teenage criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl II (there are already six novels in the series, by the way) . It showcases the genius mind of a twelve-year old boy who can interact with the creatures of the underground: all of the eight families of fairies. This book is continously becoming my nightly habit, sort of a replacement to seeing the drama and fantasy of the country’s telenovelas. A good alternative since I still do not have my own tv at my place in the city. Every night, at least a chapter.

Though I started with Book 5: Artemis Fowl The Lost Colony, it’s a nice beginning and once I found this very interesting, I might have the whole collection. It’s this book’s summary that bade me to read it. What’s cooler than this is that there is someone in the office who also reads this and even shares the series’ Graphic Novel version of Book 1. I try to read a chapter or two during lunch breaks but I have a feeling I will buy my own copy and collect all books in the series. Bad thing, the graphic novel is not available anywhere but on order basis (3 to 4 weeks of waiting).
