More About This Book

Overview

The Artemis Fowl Files is comprised of two original stories: “LEPrecon”: the story of Fairy Police Captain Holly Short’s move from Traffic to Recon following her initiation into the Fairy Police; and “The Seventh Dwarf”, featuring Mulch, Butler, and Artemis himself.

EXTRAS INCLUDE:

• “Behind-the-scenes” interviews with major characters including: Artemis, Holly, Foaly, Mulch, and Eoin Colfer himself

• Coded section from the Fairy Book for kids to translate

• A section for Fairy Spotters including the different categories of Fairy and their physical characteristics and personality traits, including: Elves, Trolls, Sprites, Pixies Goblins, Dwarves and Centaurs

• Technical diagrams of Foaly’s inventions

Two original short stories, plus puzzles, interviews with characters, and other writings that unlock secrets of the Artemis Fowl books, which feature a twelve-year-old evil genius and his dealings with fairies and other magical beings.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
This must-have, 192-page compendium of all things Fowl contains two brand-new Artemis Fowl short stories; special coded messages from the Fairy Book for young readers to decipher; and nifty descriptions and diagrams of Foaly's greatest gadgets.
Publishers Weekly
The paper-over-board The Artemis Fowl Files supplements Eoin Colfer's bestselling series, taking readers back to Holly Short's early days in the agency, where she works in Traffic and helps Captain Root defeat his villainous brother, Turnball. "The Seventh Dwarf" details LEPrecon's pursuit of Mulch Diggums and Artemis Fowl, who seek the Fei Fei Tiara. Sandwiched between the stories are pages describing Fairy Code and the Gnommish alphabet, interviews (including Colfer), a crossword and more. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.

School Library Journal
Gr 5-8-No, this is not a sequel to the previous titles; it's a companion book. It includes two original short stories, one a prequel to Artemis Fowl (the first) about Captain Holly Short and how she became a member of the LEP, and the other a story about Artemis looking for the Fei Fei Tiara (Seventh Dwarf). In it, readers see Mulch working with Artemis for the first time. There are also games; readers can practice fairy code, learn the gnomish alphabet, do a crossword puzzle or a find-a-word (the latter may cause problems in libraries). Finally, they can read interviews with Artemis, Captain Short, Butler, Mulch Diggums, Foaly, Commander Root, and the author. With the write-in caveat in mind, this volume will give all of those Fowler fans something to read while waiting for the next book.-Saleena L.

Meet the Author

Eoin Colfer
Eoin Colfer
In the summer of 2001, Eoin Colfer was a teacher in Ireland who had just finished up a book called Artemis Fowl -- about a boy in search of fairy gold. Colfer struck gold himself when his high-tech fairy tale starring the intrepid 12-year old "criminal mastermind" became a blockbuster bestseller that many considered to be the heir apparent to Harry Potter.

Biography

Eoin Colfer is a former elementary school teacher whose Artemis Fowl series has become an international bestseller. He is also the author of The Legend of Spud Murphy, The Wish List, and the New York Times bestseller The Supernaturalist.He lives in Ireland with his wife and two children.

Author biography courtesy of Miramax Books/Hyperion Books for Children.

Good To Know

Some fun and fascinating outtakes from our interview with Colfer:

"My original ambition was to be a comic book artist. I would still love to write a comic one day."

"I have a real hatred of queues. If I see a queue of more than four people, I will leave the building and come back another day."

"I have four brothers and they are the inspiration for several of the sprites and gremlins in my books."

"I did a parachute jump recently and loved it. I would definitely take it up as a hobby if we had more clear sky over here in Ireland."

"I am a big theatre fan, and I go as often as possible with my wife. I actually started out in the theatre, writing plays for my actor friends."

    Good Book!

    "The Artemis Fowl Files" is a good book! It is fun to read and helps you to get to know all the characters a little more! The short stories are cool to read because one of them takes place in between some of the other books in the series. It is a definite great read for any Artemis Fowl fan!

    Better than expected

    When I first heard of this, I was expecting a cheap exploitation of Artemis Fowl fans, but being a fan myself I still had to get it. Nothing could be further from the truth. This is a great book and a real page-turner. I'm glad I bought a copy and you will be too.

    Just what fans need. . . .

    This was just what fans everywhere need. Games, info, short stories, a decoder, and messages to desipher. I loved it. It was funny and witty and answered a lot of questions-asked and not asked.

    Surpasses Expectations!

    I have read all three of the other Artemis Fowl books, and when I saw this had come out, I figured it was one of those books authors put out just to make money and keep readers happy while they write the next book in the series. But this Artemis books, liek all the others, completely stands on its own as a humorous, engaging book that I personally could not put down. I LOVED THIS BOOK!

    This is a fantastic book, but what else would you expect from Artemis Fowl. You will keep turning the pages and won't be disappointed for a second. Worth every penny!
