His family is very rich and live in a large house, and Artemis lives with his mom, (who has been acting very strange since Artemis’ dad died.) and his two servants, Butler and Juliet.

He wanted his mom to

If someone has ever wondered how a boy genius and a female elf officer might interact, Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer is the book which can answer this and other questions. When one first notices this book, they may, perhaps, think it will be about the Greek Goddess Artemis in disguise.

fiction, which is rarely more than speculation regarding a self-perceived ideal, dystopian works call upon their audience to consider inadequacies present in their own society. Works such as Ursula LeGuin’s short story The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas, Eoin Colfer’s children’s novel The Supernaturalist and the 2006 film V for Vendetta directed by James McTeigue address such issues as human rights abuse, totalitarianism and mass consumerism through the medium of the dystopian genre, and in doing so embody

Another fictitious example is "Katniss Everdeen in...'The Hunger Games' trilogy; Lisbeth Salander is a darker side of the same spirit in Steig Larsson's 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'" (Shinoda Bolen "Artemis Archetype Arises in Modern Day
fairies, Holly and the rest of her species, don’t get discovered, and don’t die. this shows that he became compassionate, and cared about other people, and wasn’t selfish. Recommendation This month I read the book Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer. I loved this book because of its good, well-built characters, and twisting plot. This book would appeal to most preteens because the main character is a teen supergenius, and is young enough to believe in magic, but old enough to understand how
In today’s society, we are exposed to countless amounts of compositions such as novels and films. However, when an individual reads a book or watches a movie, they subconsciously create connections to the plot as they relate it to their own lives. After the movie is completely watched one is able to sit down and ask himself, “Did I like that movie?” While an average person could give a simple yes or no answer, a professional in the field of reviewing movies and novels knows that the quality of the
Reading and Censorship of the Harry Potter Novels J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, which have reached worldwide popularity have an effect on children has not been matched by any other book. The novels have encouraged children to read for entertainment instead of turning to television or video games. When a piece of literature inspires children as the Harry Potter novels do, limiting a child’s access to the novels seems ridiculous. Unfortunately, this is what is happening with Harry Potter
