Product Description:
In 2001, audiences first met and fell in love with a twelve-year-old criminal mastermind named Artemis Fowl. Since then, the series has sold over seven million copies in the United States alone. Now, this phenomenally successful series is being translated into a graphic novel format. Eoin Colfer has teamed up with established comic writer Andrew Donkin to adapt the text. For the first time, rabid fans will be able to see what Foaly's tin hat looks like; discover just how 'Beet' Root got his name; and of course, follow their favorite criminal mastermind as he plots and connives in action-packed, full-color panels.

.. this is a well laid out graphic novel.. This is not a new book but merely a graphical representation of the series book 1. The background depictions of some of the scenarios are really extensive and detail oriented. If one is not familiar with this series then this is a great place to start.

Artemis was close, but Butler is supposed to be an attractive Eurasian, not an over-necked thug. Holly is supposed to be pretty and somewhat feminine, which the novel Holly was not. Worst of all, Foaly was blue. He is a centaur, not ... Read More

I have never read the other Artemis Fowl novels so this story struck me as new and fresh. I found it really intruiging and different from other fantasy novels I have read. The ending wasn't the most exciting but the book was fun and went quickly. Now I would like to read the other Artemis Fowl books. I am an ESOL teacher so I enjoy reading young adult books that will engage my students in reading English. I think this novel will do that for both boys and girls though boys are more likely the audience ... Read More

Although this is a retelling on the first Artemis Fowl book, Artemis Fowl. This was such a good read that my son finished it in one sitting he really enjoyed it especially because he had already read the book. The illustrations were great.
