Artemis Fowl

[Beleglotiel]

I just recently read this book and I loved it! Fairies, Centaurs, Goblins, and one 12 year old criminal genius! What more could one want!? Also, I heard that there is going to be a movie made about it! Lemme know if you like it or know anything about the movie!

[Lhuntidomion]

I dunno about all you but it caught my appeal!! I was hooked right after I read the Prolouge! It's got good humour. Most fantasies are so stiff and serious! And it even has a bodygaurd taking out a troll with a mace!!! :battle::battle: It's set in a modern timeline and the events are very futuristic. If you haven't read it, read it. If you have read it, post!!! Or else I'll cry!mecry mecry mecry mecry mecry

[Beleglotiel]

I wonder if there is going to be another book! I read the newest one and I was not at all disappointed with it! It was even better than the first one!

[SindarinGirl]

I've been wanting to read these! Really good, huh? Well after I finish the 2 books I'm already reading, I'll pick up the first. Thanks for the recommendation! :)

[Beleglotiel]

It's a great book! Especially for you people with active imaginations........like me ;) lol

No, I don't think there will be because Eoin Colfer has written another book since then (not an Artemis Fowl one) and all through the first book, if you translate that code thing, it's hinting there will be another book but in the arctic incident it doesn't hint at all... it just tells you to look after the world. But I didn't know there was going to be a movie! I can't wait! where did you hear this, Beleglotiel?

[Beleglotiel]

My friend told me about it and I think she found out at the website.........I'm assuming that it is perhaps artemisfowl.com but i'm not sure :huh:

[Evenstar]

it's been mentioned on eoincolfer.com but only in the guestbook.

I just found this on the official website!
This year is going to be a very busy one for me. Not only is the paperback of the Arctic Incident coming out very soon, but the third Artemis book will be released in the Summer. This one is called The Eternity Code and I hope everyone likes it as much as the last two.


Well, I guess I was wrong when i said there would only be two!

[Beleglotiel]

OOOH YAY!!! :hooray: another one!! how exciting!! veryhappy
I CAN'T WAIT!! :wiggle:

[Amoraq]

I have read all the books so far. They really caught my interest. There's going to be a movie made and there's going to be another book.

Eoin Colfer came to my school to talk last year and he told everybody about his third book then. It was so cool...he's got a great sense of humor and I have the second book signed by him!

[Beleglotiel]

Wow! he came to your school!?!? That must have been tight! Nothing like thet would happen around here, especially not in this hick town that I've found myself in.

I can't wait for the next book and the movie!! :stomper: :grin:

[Amoraq]

Yep, it was way cool! :grin:

Another author came to visit today actually. My school seems to be big on author visits. This time it was a newberry medal winner.

[Beleglotiel]

Ohh, who was it? What books have they written? :read:

[Amoraq]

Linda Sue Park...she has four books out I think. She won for A Single Shard..I'm gona read that.

Anybody know when the movie for Artemis Fowl will be out?

[Beleglotiel]

Hmm, :huh: dunno...........go looking for some sites and see if you can find out ;)

[Evenstar]

:whoohoo: YAY! IT'S OUT! IT'S OUT! AND I HAVE READ IT ALREADY! :whoohoo:
and it rocks! and i am a bit hyper! :whoohoo:

[Amoraq]

Yay. I'm gonna go looking for it!!!

[Beleglotiel]

Really!? Cool! What's it called?! :read:

[Little Devil]

I haven't even read the first one! I've got it but can't seem to get into it. Should I try again? :huh:

[Amoraq]

Yes definitely LD! It's great!:)

[Beleglotiel]

Oh yes! It is a wonderful book!

[Galadhrim]

I tried reading the first book, and I never got past page 30 or so. I don't know, this book just doesn't go down with me. The characters were not really to my liking, and the style... well, I didn't like it either. But since so many of you are saying such nice things about it, I think I might just give it another try... :)

[Evenstar]

yes, it is definately worth giving it another try!
those of you who have read the Eternity Code, have you tried working out the code at the bottom of each page? i got about 1/2 way through the book. i am just interested to see what you came up with. :)

[Beleglotiel]

My friend did all of it, but I'm not good at that type of stuff :huh:

[Amoraq]

I know someone who figured out the whole code. Did anyone notice that on the second book's cover the word FOWL is spelled out in the code?

[Beleglotiel]

I sure didn't. I guess I'm not that observent heh :)

[Amoraq]

Well, I didn't notice it...someone pointed it out to me. :grin: It's hidden in the silver cover.

[Beleglotiel]

Wow, cool! That guy is very clever :thumbs:

[Amoraq]

Yep, he is. :grin: He's also actually kinda annoying, but he's brilliant with the code...he cracked the whole thing.:huh:

[Beleglotiel]

Annoying? How so? :huh:

[Amoraq]

Oh well...he just never stops talking. And he's always getting into trouble.

[Woodland Gal]

ive never read artim fowl but i heard it was good...maybe i shoould read it lol....

[Beleglotiel]

Yes! You should! It is very interesting! ;) :grin:

[Woodland Gal]

ok haha i will i will!!
lollollol

[Beleglotiel]

You should!!

[Melain]

I enjoyed all three books. In my opinion they draw level with Harry Potter.

[Lhuntidomion]

The third book is out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The EternityCode is out. I sawit and bought it when I was gettijng HP5. It's out!
I haven't yet read it because I haven't finished the 896 pages of Harry Potter5 but hey, it's the summer.

[Evenstar]

It's been out for quite a while. You should read it - but Harry Potter comes first! :grin: :)

[Beleglotiel]

Ugh! What is it with you people and Harry Pothead!?!?! I draw the line at obsessing over that! I have too many obsessions as it is. I like the movies and all, but I wouldn't read the books.

[Lhuntidomion]

it's okay i read Artemis3. It's the end, no more Arty. he's gone straight.

[Evenstar]

actually I think there is space for a sequel, I don't know if eoin colfer will write on tho.

[Eowyn]

oh he's so not going straight! Eoin Coiffer has seen how much money he can make from this and come on this is artemis we're talking about. It's all set up for his come back! :hyper:

[Evenstar]

Great! after all it was an evil cliffhanger he left us with - Artemis gone back to his evil ways! pfbbt

[Eowyn]

he'll be back and better than ever! More scheming and more bodyguards but with the added twist of keeping his parents from becoming suspicious of him!

[Evenstar]

yay! I wonder what it'll be called? And who do you think will play Artemis in the film? Or Holly? :huh:

[Eowyn]

wait film???? is there going to be a film?

[Evenstar]

Yes apparently. I don;t know any more than that though.

Look what I just found on the official website!
I am very busy at the moment working on several projects. The next Artemis book is due out in 2004, but before that there will be a mini adventure in 2003 and a full length sci fi book- The Supernaturalist. For younger readers The Legend of Spud Murphy will be out next Spring.

So there is going to be another book! :grin:

[Eowyn]

yeah! something to look forward to. now all i have to do is read all these other books i have first! lol

[Evenstar]

lol

what other books?

[Eowyn]

erm... Terry Goodkind's many books
The adventures of Sherlock Holmes,
finish reading the Discworld series,
The Tawny Man series by Robin Hobb although that isn't complete yet erm... a David and Leigh Eddings book and many many more lol

[Beleglotiel]

*bele creeps into the thread* hey guys...i haven't been around here much lately...just wanted to say that the 3rd Artemis Fowl kicks @$$ :grin: i can't wait to read the 4th book if there is one.

[Eowyn]

There will be one and I can't wait either. I always borrow them off my sister so whenever it's released I'll have to wait till i go home for the holidays.

[Evenstar]

it's not coming out for a while tho. I think Eoin Colfer's getting another one published first.

good luck with your reading list, Eowyn! :grin:

[Eowyn]

Thanks Evanstar I've finished one of the books and started the next lol

[Evenstar]

:thumbs:

so have you read the Eternity Code yet?

[Eowyn]

erm... yes I read it over the summer when i borrowed it off my sister. I had started to read it and then stopped because she wanted it back. unfortunately I'd stopped at the end of the restuarant bit near the start :rolleyes: I always pick the stupidist places to stop lol

[Evenstar]

yeah my sister has never finished it cos I'm very posessive of my books! lol and it wasn't even mine!

so does that mean you haven't finished it yet? :huh:

[Eowyn]

no i finished it finally. I borrowed it at the weekend when I went home and read t before I went back. It was very good. interesting ideas and it started te biologist in me thinking! lol

[Ithildiel Noldoran]

Well, I was looking for a thread on those incredible books...I am so glad I found one!! :grin: The second and third books of Mr. Fowl were incredible, too; so innovative and with such fantastic storylines! :grin: Does anyone know if there is a fourth book coming?

[ladyofthelight]

Has anyone read the Lost Colony? It was really good.

[BelovedCaptain]

The last one I read was after the Omega Code. The title escapes me though.
Is there really gonna be a movie??????

[ladyofthelight]

I think that one was 'Opal Deception'
As far as a movie, I have no idea. Do you know what the books' website is? i'd check there. There's nothing on IMDB about it, though.

[BelovedCaptain]

Ah yes. That's what it was. Is there another one out?

[ladyofthelight]

After Opal Deception is Lost Colony

[BelovedCaptain]

Is that right? Hmmmmm.........

[ladyofthelight]

It was really good. There is a character named Minerva. She was very funny, to me at least. It's a worthwhile read.

[Ithildiel Noldoran]

Yup, I hear there is going to be a movie,I recall reading somewhere that MGN, I think, has got the rights to it!!What I don't know, though, is if it's going to be a 5th book!!Has anyone heard anything about that?

[ladyofthelight]

Nope, but I hope there is! I love the series and it would be a shame to not get to know the twins

[Ithildiel Noldoran]

I hope there's a 5th book too,it's an amazing series;and I am looking forward to the movie,as well!:)

[ladyofthelight]

I don't know if the movie's ever going to get past talk, but I'd love to see it. Who would you want to play everyone?
