A gorgeous new 25th anniversary paperback edition of Eoin Colfer's international bestseller about a criminal mastermind and his siege against dangerous, tech-savvy fairies, featuring the original gold and holographic cover with new stained edges.

The world that Colfer creates is as vivid and fantastical as any shire, gotham, or galaxy far, far away in recent memory.
―Entertainment Weekly

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.

This reissue of the original gold and holographic cover in honour of the 25th anniversary features new sprayed edges. Whether you're new to Artemis Fowl or are a longtime fan, this anniversary edition is a must-have for your library.
