Artemis Fowl and the Atlantis Complex by Eoin Colfer - review

The criminal mastermind is back! There is a problem though: Artemis has turned nice!

Trouble is brewing in the prison of Atlantis where criminal mastermind Trouble Kelp is breaking out of prison and planning to destroy the underwater city of Atlantis with the help of a dangerous group of goblins. Sadly, Artemis cannot battle Kelp as Artemis has a problem called the Atlantis Complex (multiple personality disorder) where Artemis fears the number 4 and worships the number 5. He has become paranoid and does not even trust butler! Every now and then his other personality (Orion) takes over in the wrong place at the wrong time. There is a spectacular climax that left me stunned. I cannot reveal the climax.

I really like this book but it seems like a very tiny book. It begins, they have a middle scene of about four chapters and then the climax. I really like the book but I wish there was a little more adventure and action. Artemis Fowl is a series that never gets old, just like the Alex Rider series, as there is always an element of surprise. I wish such series would never end; while you are reading such a book you never feel like putting it down because you just have to turn the page.
