Artemis Fowl and the Atlantis Complex by Eoin Colfer

Artemis Fowl and the Atlantis Complex (Artemis Fowl, #7)

by Eoin Colfer

ARTEMIS FOWL'S CRIMINAL WAYS HAVE FINALLY GOT THE BETTER OF HIM . . .

Young Artemis has frequently used high-tech fairy magic to mastermind the most devious criminal activity of the new century. Now, at a conference in Iceland, Artemis has gathered the fairies to present his latest idea to save the world from global warming. But Artemis is behaving strangely - he seems different. Something terrible has happened to him . . .

Artemis Fowl has become nice.

The fairies diagnose Atlantis Complex (that's obsessive compulsive disorder to you and I) - it seems dabbling in magic has damaged Artemis' main weapon: his mind. Fairy ally Captain Holly Short doesn't know what to do. The subterranean volcanoes are under attack from vicious robots and Artemis cannot fight them. Can Holly get the real Artemis back ---before the robot probes destroy every human and life form?

By this point in the series I was pretty much just trying to finish it. I think that the 'Atlantis Complex' was an interesting idea but I personally found it to be somewhat random, like the story line was all over the place. Orion was entertaining, but I found him to be irritating and that overshadowed the good.
Once again there was a great underlying story line that was unveiled slowly.
I think it's like the Matrix, Die Hard, Borne, and Bond movies: after about 3 or 4 it's time to put this to rest.
