Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

This is the first book of the misdemeanors of Artemis Fowl. This 12 year-old criminal mastermind has discovered that fairies do exist and is hell bent on parting them from their gold by hook or crook (preferably the latter). He kidnaps LEPrecon officer, Captain Holly Short, as a means to realize his elegantly evil plan. Unfortunately for him, the fairies won't go down without a fight...

This book features a great blend of "underground" technology and magic. The characters are highly witty and memorable. Although Artemis is a villain, I assure you that you will be charmed by his wicked humour. Recommended reading!
