Excerpt

Artemis Fowl

Twelve-year-old Artemis Fowl is a millionaire, a genius--and, above all, a criminal mastermind. But even Artemis doesn't know what he's taken on when he kidnaps a fairy, Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon Unit. These aren't the fairies of bedtime stories--they're dangerous! Full of unexpected twists and turns, Artemis Fowl is a riveting, magical adventure. Eoin Colfer is a former elementary school teacher whose novel Artemis Fowl and its follow-up, Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident were both international bestsellers. Previously he had written several other bestsellers in Ireland, including The Wish List series and The Wish List on audio from Listening Library. Nathaniel Parker has appeared in several films, including The Bodyguard, Wide Sargasso Sea, and Hamlet, while his theatrical roles are Wellbred in Every Man in His Humour, Kudryash in The Storm, Florizel in The Winter's Tale, and Don Pedro in The Rover.
