Very commercial book. Fun little stories in it, but not very intriguing like the full-length books are. It is a fun read, but not much more than that.

I was amused by this supplement to the Artemis Fowl series and would recommend it to fanatics as well as those looking for a few laughs.

This book was okay. I didn't exactly dislike it, but I didn't really like it too much either.
It's been a few years since I read my last Artemis Fowl book, and to be honest, I don't really remember a whole lot about them. I feel like the books in general are not memorable for me. I know I had fun reading them, and I know I (mostly) liked the characters, but the books really aren't anything special.
This one had two very short stories. The stories didn't draw me in, I mostly just kept reading to get the book over with. This was probably the least memorable book of the whole series.

Nothing that I hadn't decoded before (specifically talking about the Gnomish alphabets).
It is not updated (as in with the latest novel - the Atlantis Complex) and I say this isn't really a required reading if you're a fan of the Fowl series. Just leaf through it.

This is half activity book and half short stories. I had actually never read these before, but it was kind of cute going back to when they didn't all work together as a cohesive unit after reading further into the book series. I wish I had read it before the seventh book, but too late now! Still, it was a fun and easy read. I'd give it four stars.

An interesting insight into the Artemis Fowl series. Thanks for writing this short in-between kind of dossier. :-)
