Anyone read this book? Its a really good read. An awesome take on modernized fairy's. Characters are incredible, as well the story is pretty cool too. I won't get into spoiler mood yet.

This book has been recommended to me several times, but I've never gotten around to reading it.

Ditto.  Everyone I know who has read it loved it.

The book is a day waster. If you've got the time, go forth and waste. I'm on the second book "Artemis Fowl: The Artic Incident." Golrified greatness in goo.

Yeah, it's short but really fun to read. One of those books I enjoyed "reading", rather than just "having read".

Now that's a really good compliment when it comes to a book.

I loved this book! I didn't even know there was a sequel...I did hear that a movie adaptation is rumored to be put into motion soon, though.

There are actually three books at the moment.  The third is called "The Eternity Code."

I have the first and second, both good. I've been meaning to read the third, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

The third was perhaps the coolest. This guy fleshes out the world further in the sequals.

In fact, this guy's world is amazingly consistant. I could take a few hints from this.
