The adventures of Artemis Fowl, criminal mastermind, begin.

Twelve-year-old criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl has discovered a world below ground of armed and dangerous—and extremely high-tech—fairies. He kidnaps one of them, Holly Short, and holds her for ransom in an effort to restore his family’s fortune. But he may have underestimated the fairies’ powers. Is he about to trigger a cross-species war?

Includes a sneak peek of The Fowl Twins, an all-new novel by Eoin Colfer.
