Review 9: Artemis Fowl: the Time Paradox
Title: Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox
Author: Eoin Colfer
Publisher: Hyperion Books for Children
Rating: 8.5/10
The Lowdown:
We left Artemis finding out that *gasp* he is going to be a lil brother! YAY! After Artemis's mama gets sick with some disease after giving birth (three years after giving birth), Artemis must go back in time to find the cure. He will have to defeat his deadliest enemey yet: Artemis Fowl, age 10.
The Good:
A. I loved how Holly and Arty share a kiss!
B. Opal Koboi. Her freakiness makes moi happy :)
C. JayJay. He is beyond cute.
D. Mulch is back!!!!
E. The. Cover. Is. AWESOME. You have to touch it to believe it.
The Bad:
A. The ending. Seriously?
B. The Extinctionist Society. Anything dealing with animal cruelty is on my bad list. I hope organizations like these don't exist in our society.
The Consensus:
I fell in love with Lil Arty at a very young age. He became the only thing I cared about, the only thing I thought about (yes, I was a nerd.) But, this book was awesome until the end when Colfer reveals the ending. The ending sucked. So, SPOILER ALERT.
I can't believe that Colfer could do this to the fans! Let Opal escape! At least let her get captured for once, peeps! Perhaps Opal went back in time somehow.... but I am seriously annoyed that Colfer could do that to us fans.
Anyways, ending aside, the book was a complete 10/10 out of my book... bye bye lil Arty. I shall miss you dearly. :(
*Since there is an Artemis Fowl movie coming out... so, I will start a new section of the blog called Fowl Friday. Ingenious, isn't it? :)*
