The Atlantis Complex

Synopsis

In the seventh installment of Eoin Colfer's bestselling Artemis Fowl series, the infamous criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl finds himself in an unprecedented predicament. Having summoned an elite contingent of high-tech fairies to Iceland to unveil his groundbreaking invention designed to combat global warming, a shocking transformation has befallen him: Artemis Fowl has become uncharacteristically kind. This alarming shift is swiftly diagnosed as Atlantis Complex, a magical manifestation of multiple-personality disorder, a direct consequence of his previous dabblings in forbidden magic. As the subterranean city of Atlantis faces an imminent threat from relentless robotic invaders, the newly 'nice' Artemis proves utterly ineffective. It falls to his long-standing fairy ally, Captain Holly Short, to navigate the complex layers of Artemis's fractured psyche. Can she recover the devious, brilliant Artemis of old before Atlantis succumbs to its attackers and the world loses its only hope against both global warming and a new, technological menace?
