C.J. Milbrandt's Reviews > Artemis Fowl: The Graphic Novel

Artemis (boy genius and criminal mastermind) is trying to bolster the family business by securing something nobody else believes in: fairy gold. Kidnapping a real fairy is all part of the plan, and he's routinely several steps ahead. But as both he and Captain Holly Short (part of a LEPrecon unit) find out, there's no accounting for trolls.

I did read Artemis Fowl first, so I had more context than the graphic novelization is able to give. As it always goes with these sorts of things ... I liked the book better. This is a much-abridged but faithful version, and it was definitely fun to see the cast in action. Recommended for reluctant readers and for fans of the series.
