I'd say this is the least interesting of the books so far, and I had to force myself to keep on reading towards the middle.

Still, this strange affair between the friend of Amelia Earhart's and the evil fairy had something in it. ( )

Artemis Fowl, criminal mastermind is suffering from Atlantis Complex due to his illegal exploration of fairy magic. This illness is causing split personality and a lot of non-Artemis type thinking just when the fairy world needs his help in saving the actual Atlantis. Definitely a fun entry in the Artemis Fowl series. ( )

I may be biased but IMHO this is the weakest book in the series.

I was positively gleeful to start reading another Fowl book, what with The Time Paradox being the most exciting and incredibly outstanding.
Sadly I crash-landed in a not so superb next adventure.

Somehow the Paradox ended on the ending note for me: good story, strong sentiments and a confession of all worldly (and underworldly) deeds.

This one wasn't bad. But I found it strongly lacking.
Like an unfulfilled promise, somehow ( )

I suspect that the central joke worked better in synopsis than it plays out in the novel. Orion is funny but I'm not sure that he is funny enough for the trade-off – which requires filling the hole left by Artemis's absence on sick leave. True, it means that other characters, in particular the splendidly feisty Holly Short, are pushed to the fore. On the other hand, Orion is a buffoon, and while you may laugh, you may also, like Holly, feel like hitting him and fervently wish that the real Arty would hurry back.

Book description
ARTEMIS FOWL HAS LOST HIS MIND…JUST WHEN THE WORLD NEEDS HIM MOST

Artemis has committed his entire fortune to a project he believes will save the planet and its inhabitants, both human and fairy. Can it be true? Has goodness taken hold of the world’s greatest teenage criminal mastermind?

Captain Holly Short is unconvinced, and discovers that Artemis is suffering from Atlantis Complex, a psychosis common among guilt-ridden fairies—not humans—and most likely triggered by Artemis’s dabbling with fairy magic. Symptoms include obsessive-compulsive behavior, paranoia, multiple personality disorder and, in extreme cases, embarrassing professions of love to a certain feisty LEPrecon fairy.

Unfortunately, Atlantis Complex has struck at the worst possible time. A deadly foe from Holly’s past is intent on destroying the actual city of Atlantis. Can Artemis escape the confines of his mind—and the grips of a giant squid—in time to save the underwater metropolis and its fairy inhabitants?
