Do you remember when you were a child and pretend to be a fairy or fight off evil goblins? In the book Artemis Fowl #3 The Eternity Code Artemis a young prodigy with questionable motives stumbled upon a whole society of Goblins, Fairies, and elf's three years ago in the book, Artemis Fowl. The novel starts out with the fairy world trying to clean up after the B'wa kell (goblin gang) revolt which our young mastermind helped foil in the previous book. In the middle of rebuilding in a shocking change of events a human radar picks up the underworlds transmission and takes a huge chunk of faerie information. Well it turns out the device that picked up the transmission was from none other than a machine built by Artemis with stolen superior fairy technology. While the fairy is under a lock down Artemis is trying to sell his C-cube that is vastly superior to any human technology to an evil businessman named Jon Spiro who ambushes Artemis and steals the C-cube. Watch as these two worlds collide in order to save them both for if they fail there will be no more place to call home for the fairies and would cause mass hysteria in the human world. While reading this book I was thoroughly entertained throughout the entire novel. I found the book to be a great read if you are just looking for a fun series that will captivate you to the very end but not really have any greater value or meaning. The characters are extremely realistic even if she is a fairy i still felt like i could completely relate to Holly Short and her troubles though i have never had to save the world. The book was a great fun read that kept me guessing what would happen next at every flip of the page, it did exactly what it was supposed to do which was entertain. My only complaint was that it and the previous books in the series all have similar plots and it makes it much easier to predict the what will happen and is a bit repetitive as a series not as a book. I found this book to be a very enjoyable read and would recommend it to anyone just looking for a lively book to enjoy.

You know, I really like the fact that these stories don't always have just the perky, happy ending. Sometimes bad things happen. And the "good guy" in the story is not always good, either.

Artemis is at it again, one last evil dead. The development of a revolutionary electronic device constructed of bits and pieces of leftover fairy technology. But the problem, of course, is someone wants to steal all of his thunder.

Luckily for Artemis, this includes fairy technology so the fairies will come to his rescue again.

The Artemis Fowl stories take you on a bit of a roller coaster ride every time you read them. It won't matter if you have already read the story. You are going to feel like you have been flipped upside down and wrung out.

They are fun reads, although I would recommend using caution in presenting them to younger readers. Some of the content may be a bit mature for some middle-grade readers.

Reasonably entertaining, some plot holes. I do not care for the idea of glorifying criminal activity, even for "likeable" young people who learn some kind of positive lesson along the way.

Very good setting+plot, exciting

Summary: Artemis is pleased to have both of his parents alive and well (or at least on the mend), but he realizes that parental supervision will likely cut short his criminal extra-curricular activities. So, he plans one last big operation: He's taken some fairy technology and used it to create a computing device that is decades beyond anything humans currently have. His plan is to dangle this technology in front of Jon Spiro, the CEO of one of the world's largest computing and communication companies, and then extort Spiro for large amounts of cash in exchange for keeping the cube off the market. However, things start going wrong - deadly wrong - when Spiro manages to outsmart Artemis and steals the cube. Once again, Artemis and the fairy folk must work together to recover the stolen cube or risk losing everything.Review: I've been listening to the Artemis Fowl books as a fun, light break from other reading, and thus far I've been enjoying them. However, I didn't feel like The Eternity Code lived up to the precedent set by the first two books. There was still plenty of action and adventure and cracking wise, which was good, but I didn't feel like the danger was as dangerous or the criminal mastermind plans so mastermind-y. The characters admit that it will take Spiro's people a while to crack the cube's code, so there isn't really a sense of urgency about Artemis's attempt to steal the cube back from Spiro's clutches. Similarly, there was barely a facet/twist of either Spiro's or Artemis's various schemes that I didn't see coming from a mile away. There were some nice character moments, and it's interesting to watch how Artemis has changed since a few books ago... but I want my heist stories to feel slick, and this one didn't quite make it there. Also, a note to authors setting a book primarily in a city with which they are not personally acquainted: have a local read your story *before* it goes to press, or else face the wrath of local readers who will undoubtedly catch your errors *after* it's gone to press. Most crime lords don't have lairs on the East Side of Chicago, because the "East Side" of Chicago is Lake Michigan, and referring to "Chicago state law" is enough to make geography teachers weep. Similarly, while I generally like Nathaniel Parker's narration - he's good with the various voices and the UK accents (at least to my uncultured ear) - his attempt at a Chicago mobster accent was almost laughably bad. 3 out of 5 stars.Recommendation: The Eternity Code was still an entertaining read, despite being the weakest of the series so far... but it did at least leave me curious to see how Colfer would carry on in the next book.

i feel this kinda a bad book it is worse the its previous books and it has a lot of action and fantasy. don't really waste your time on the book

More fun with Artemis Fowl. I thought I'd be sick of reading, after doing it all weekend, but apparently not. And the Artemis Fowl books really are good train reading.

In a way, it's pretty much the same as the previous books -- a fun romp that doesn't require too much thought, basically. All the characters we know and love show up again. I particularly liked Juliet's part. I'm amazed at what happened to Butler in this book, I'm really interested in how his role is going to change as a result. I hope it doesn't just get magically reversed now I'm invested in it.

Interested to see how it goes on. But I think I'll wait a while before reading the rest -- I think I could easily get sick of these books.

5/10.

The further adventures of Artemis Fowl. This time a mainly human based adventure as someone steals the fairy-technology based computer that Fowl has been developing.

Thirteen-yr-old Artemis Fowl' father comes back after being held prisoner for two years. He is changed and vows to turn his back on a life of crime. Artemis decides to go on a last mission before following his father. He meets with Jon Spiro and asks for gold in return for keeping his C Cube away from the public for one year. Artemis designed the C Cube using fairy technology and is fifty years advance than current communication technology. Spiro tricks Artemis and takes the cube. In the struggle, Spiro's bodyguard, Arno Blunt, shot and killed Artemis' protector and friend, Domovoi Butler. Quick-thinking Artemis froze Butler's body in the fish freezer in a matter of minutes, hoping cryogenics will be able to bring his friend back to life. He sent a coded message to the underground fairy world and Captain Holly Short. Holly makes Butler alive again. Now Artemis, Holly and Juliet, Butler's sister will have to work together to get the cube back or the life of every creature on the planet and underground is at risk. Artemis agrees to give up his fairy memories in a mind sweep in return for the fairies' help. Is he really letting go of those memories? Colfer's narration is so hilariously funny you want to read the book over and over again. Very entertaining!!!

Another wonderfully rendered audiobook with a top notch voice actor, Nathaniel Parker certainly does a very admirable job bringing us the continuing adventures of Artemis Fowl.In this third volume of the series we find Artemis questioning his "gold is power" theory both because of the influence of his fairy friends and the new disposition of his returned father. However, Artemis is determined to make one last venture before he gives up his criminal ways. To do this he has called a meeting with American cyber criminal, John Spiro. But when things go fatally awry Artemis has to make an emergency call to the LEP to both save Butler's life and possibly the very secrets of the fairy underground itself.As always, this story is filled with action, great characters and lots of twists and turns. The ending seemed a bit melancholy to me and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next in "The Opal Deception".

Artemis Fowl is back in this interesting story, except this time he's about to hang up his maniacal schemes and go for a fresh start with his father. On one last scheme before his fresh start though, Artemis finds himself playing into a trap, when John Spiro tricks Artemis into giving up a piece of fairy technology - the C Cube. To get it back, Artemis has to exchange his memory of the fairy people for their help to save his friend Butler from death, and show John Spiro that he messed around with the wrong 13-year-old boy...

I read it mainly for the humor, and as far as that goes, I love Artemis (of all the characters) the best!

[beammey · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

As always, I loved getting lost in the world Eoin Colfer created for this series. I still think the first book in the series is the best, but I still adored this one. It had twists and turns (Butler!!!) and kept me on the edge of my seat. I loved it so much. I would recommend this book and series. 5 out of 5 stars, easily. Can't wait to start the next one!

[wiremonkey · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

I don't have much to say about Artemis except that it falls squarely into the category of children's escape reading. Not that there is anything wrong with that. It is a ripping good read, with a character that is not too good, if a little bit snotty. My only qualms with the series are the passages from Artemis's diary. He ends up sounds wooden and stilted instead of the genius boy he is. Still, for any action adventure fan, this is worth recommending.

[burnit99 · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

Artemis uses fairy technology to create a supercomputer, the C Cube. Unfortunately, it is stolen by a Chicago businessman, Jon Spiro, and Butler is mortally wounded. Artemis enlists the fairy people to save Butler and recover the stolen technology. Another enthralling tale, but I am distressed at the permanent changes that have been wreaked upon Butler. At the end of this adventure, the fairies have decided that the safest course where Artemis Fowl is concerned is to wipe the minds of him and his people. Butler's sister Juliet has a larger role in this book, and she has become a most intriguing character herself.

[thelostentwife · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

I really enjoyed this third installment of Artemis Fowl. More then a few times I found myself cackling and shaking my head at the quirky characters, the sharp, smart comebacks and the awesome generalizations made on what could otherwise be some scary characters. This was definitely a worth-while addition to the series and the nice little cliff-hanger at the end has me ready to jump into the next book.

[nules_1 · Bewertung: 2 von 5 Sternen]

This was a cool book. I liked it at least as much as the first one, I think.

[livana_2 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

The best Artemis Fowl so far.At the beginning of the series, I did not like Artemis very much. A 12-year old cold-hearted boy, he is finally developing into a caring person. I can't wait to read the next chapter.After his father is rescued from the Russian mafia, but before he returns to Fowl Manor, Artemis wants to plan one last job. He meets with Jon Spiro, a very powerful (and dangerous) man. Artemis offers to keep his new super invention, the C Cube, a device that will render every computer technology obsolete, secret... for a fee - of course. Needless to say, Mr. Spiro is not happy with this. He doesn't want to be bothered by a 13-year old.

Fasten your seatbelt for another adventure with Artemis & his wee friends.

This is a very averege book for the Artimis Fowl Seris (an avereage Artimis Fowl is still excellent) I didn't much like the villin, but I did like the Teaming up of Artimis, Mulch, and Holly with no grudges for once as well as the development of thier charectors.

[jaimelesmaths · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Good recovery on the third book! After the disappointment of the second book in the series, this was a welcome change. Much better and twistier plot and some actual character development! Not quite as good as the first one, but still very engaging.

[redthing · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

My least favorite of the series, but don't get me wrong. ALL the Artemis Fowl books are worth reading!

[theresa2011 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

This is my favorite of the Artemis Fowl series. In it, Artemis is a nice mix of criminal mastermind and human. He's lost some of his immorality, but he's still got his genius.

[sdtaylor555 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Ok I admit it...Mulch is my favorite character :) This installment was incredible. I loved the growth displayed in Artemis's character. Too bad. He is a great bad guy. But I can actually stand him as a person now! Wow, what a plot!

[heidilove_1 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

I am a serious Artemis Fowl fan. That he goes all geekified in this book only makes it better.

[maita_6 · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

Artemis' 3rd adventure doesn't start as he wants it to. It causes him to get faithful Butler injured. Can Artemis face what's coming next?Yes he can and does. Everything is not about brains as our young rogue will learn. Half of it depends on the heart as well.

[preck1378 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Another smash hit in the Artemis Fowl series. I'm hooked on these. It's amazing what gems await in Young Fiction. Enjoying Harry Potter really opened my eyes. These are light and entertaining yet have a good moral message at the center.
