The first book in Eoin Colfer's internationally bestselling series about a criminal mastermind and his siege against dangerous, tech-savvy fairies, now as a graphic novel!
Twelve-year-old Artemis Fowl is a millionaire, a genius, and—above all—a criminal mastermind. But even Artemis doesn't know what he's taken on when he kidnaps a fairy, Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon Unit. These aren't the fairies of bedtime stories; these fairies are armed and dangerous.
Artemis thinks he has them right where he wants them...but then they stop playing by the rules.

"Artemis Fowl is pacy, playful, and very funny, an inventive mix of myth and modernity, magic and crime." —Time
