Artemis Fowl – The Time Paradox -

First off let me say sorry about the no books updates in a while. I’ve been reading, but am just too lazy to write reviews :) Second, Artemis Fowl is by far one of the coolest series around. I mean come on, fairies packing guns and awesome technology? Coolness! Seriously Eion Colfer does a superb job of blending old legends and myths with modern tech and devices and then overlaying all with fantastic plots and enjoyable characters. “The Time Paradox” is the sixth book in the series and one of the most intricate yet. Why? Because it centers around time travel. The novel brings in the whole “If I travel back in time and accidentally kill my parents what will happen?” idea and is extremely interesting. The best part is that it pits the genius hero against himself eight years ago when he was basically a jerk of the highest degree. While the plot itself has a few holes in it that are never fully repaired it’s still a outstanding read. Plus it’s got a lemur named Jayjay in it. Come on! Lemurs are pretty sweet! :D

The cover's better in real-life. More shiny!

  1. Looks like we have very similar taste in books. Haven’t read this one yet–thought I had but definitely have not but my brother (who is 16) has the whole series which I have absconded and not returned. Going to read your other reviews since I have a hard time finding stuff like this that appeals to me and hate going out and buying books that I find don’t.
