Artemis Fowl




The first novel in the extraordinary Artemis Fowl series, now with a brand-new cover look!

Brought to you by Penguin.

The abridged, downloadable audiobook edtion of Eoin Colfer's ARTEMIS FOWL - Die Hard... with fairies. Read by the actor Adrian Dunbar.

Twelve-year-old villain Artemis Fowl is the most ingenious criminal mastermind in history. His bold and daring plan is to hold a leprechaun to ransom. But he's taking on more than he bargained for when he kidnaps Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon(Lower Elements Police Reconnaissance Unit). For a start, leprechaun technology is more advanced than our own. Add to that the fact that Holly is a true heroine and that her senior officer Commander Root will stop at nothing to get her back and you've got the mother of all sieges brewing!
