Only thing I distinctly remember is they got really meta towards the end and Artemis became “powerful”, which kinda lessened the intellect aspect of the series
Iirc
Artemis Fowl was a GOAT read as a kid. I think after my big Harry Potter phase that was like a slightly more grown up thing for me.
It slowly became less interesting and I dropped out by the 7th book or so, like the first 5 or so were pretty great though
It did in the late 90s, early 00s
Those who transform on the covers are the actors/actresses from it
Oh wow didn’t know that
It and keys to the kingdom were in the same tier to me
Behind the Percy Jackson-esque joints and Animorphs and substantially behind Harry Potter/Hunger Games/Twilight
Keys to the kingdom just unlocked memoriessss
Loved this series when i was a kid and thought it was lioned. While I was in college though i had a couple jobs where i was a mentor/TA and I was completely astounded by the amount of kids who had not read, much less heard of the series.
Thought it was a classic for kids growing up in the 2000's but IG not?
I was aware of em but I never read one
