Evil pixie, Opal Koboi is back and she's more dangerous than ever. This time she doesn't just want power over the fairy People, this time she wants the lot. Everyone is under threat - humans and fairies alike. Captain Holly Short is the only fairy with a hope of stopping her, but as Holly knows, it takes one genius criminal mastermind to fight another. And the 14-year-old genius Holly is thinking of can't even remember that fairies exist. How is she going to convince Artemis Fowl to help her? Gold usually does the trick with that young man and this time is no different. Together Artemis, Holly, Mulch and Butler foil Opal Koboi's plans for world domination.
Artemis has decided to steal a painting, he can't remember any of his past dealings with faerie, but strangely enough, this paining has faeries. Meanwhile Holly is dealing with promotion, the only way she knows how and almsot pining for the days when Artemis made her life interesting.
And then Opal Koboi breaks free with a cunning plan to destroy faerie lands and to gain a lot of power, Artemis will have to be reminded, and faerie is never going to be the same.
I found it interesting but it did lag a bit in places, Artemis is becomming more of a rounded person in this story and there's a bit of introspection going on which is all good. I'm looking forward to the next installment.
