Artemis Fowl: The Artic Incident is about a teenage boy who has a super high IQ and his bodyguard, Butler. His name is Artemis Fowl and he's received news about his father who is being held for a ransom so he asks some fairies for some help. The book is unique because it describes in detail how each character feels. Yes, I would recommend this title to friends. I did enjoy reading this book because it has a lot of action. AP 10/10/08 This book is about Artemis Fowl, a 13 year old genius. He hatches a plot to save his father from the Russian Mafia, but can only complete the mission with help from the LEP elf police. This book is unique because it shows elves in a very different way. I really enjoyed the book because it was exciting and different. MO 6/12/08
