Artemis Fowl seems to be running amuck. At least, that's what Captain Holly Short believes when she witnesses his strange behavior lurches. Eventually, she concludes that he's suffering from Atlantis Complex, a grab-bag psychosis that could keep a dozen therapists fully occupied. And Artemis' mental problems couldn't be occurring at a worse time: The actual underwater city of Atlantis is facing a very real attack and unless Artemis can free himself of his delusions, this once-bubbling metropolis is just a few gurgles away from its watery demise. The seventh episode in a first-class adventure fantasy.

And does it well...
(I have mixed feelings about this book so the review will take a while - assuming I don't just skip reviewing it)Some quick thoughts: it has a more solid plot than its predecessor, although it is arguably more of a filler. The depiction of Artemis's mental illness is disrespectful at times (even tho...
Wow was Orion a pain in the butt! He was annoying but at the same time I quite enjoyed the new layer it brought to the story. And I thought Artemis might go crazy sooner or later. As always, Colfer's writing was witty, entertaining and funny. After reading almost the whole series (one to go!) in les...
I think the thing I liked most about this book is Artemis' ongoing descent into craziness. I quite like the character changes of Artemis between the last book and this one; the obsession over numbers was amusing to me and seemed a logical addition to his character (whether because of an illness or n...
