3.5 Stars -- Review by Chance Norton

Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer

How many people have wished they were smarter? Or that maybe, just this once they could pull off a heist? Maybe have a butler that is more than just a butler?

In this third volume of Artemis’ adventures with the People (fairies of course), Artemis does all this and more with his friends. This book has everything a YA reader could want, plot twists, horrible bad guys, loveable good guys and not so loveable antiheros.
Artemis’ plan is of course to collect even more money in this novel and he sets out to get it by NOT selling his C-Cube, which is a futuristic part fairy portable technology. DVD player, VHS player, security slicer, MP3 player, ect. There is nothing this thing cannot do. And the man he wants to NOT sell this wonderful piece of technology for is a man named John Spiro, industry leader in the very things the C-Cube will take over. Needless to say he is not pleased by this revelation and sets out to make the C-Cube his… No matter what happens to Artemis and his friends.
I recommend this book for all fans of the series and everyone who likes a good weekend read with plenty of humor, plenty of action, and of course, fairies.
