Artemis Fowl and the Eternity Code

Movie available from June 12th only on Disney+

Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code is the third book in the unbelievably brilliant Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer.

CAN ARTEMIS FOWL LEAVE HIS CRIMINAL PAST BEHIND?

Not quite. At least, not yet. He's got one last job, and then he's going to be good.

But the job goes horribly wrong. So wrong in fact that now a nasty, ruthless billionaire has stolen Artemis's latest invention - a powerful super-computer that could put the entire fairy world at risk.

Holly Short is going to be furious.

Artemis must retrieve the stolen technology. He needs help. He needs the fairies. He's got some apologising to do . . .

***Artemis Fowl was winner of the WHSmith Children's Book of the Year Award and Children's Book of the Year at the Children's Book Awards. Shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Book of the Year Award.***

—— Michelle , BCF Book Reviews

The most original opening I've read in years and a plot twist that turns brilliantly

—— Abi Elphinstone, author of Sky Song

This is a terrific debut of strange myths and dark secrets, fierce loyalties and ruthless villains, told against the thrilling backdrop of a half submerged city.

—— The Bookseller – Editor's Choice

Compellingly inventive and unpredictable, kept me guessing right till the end.

—— Piers Torday, author of The Last Wild

Absolutely cracking! Great characters, with quite the nastiest villain I've met in a long while.

—— Fleur Hitchcock, author of The Boy Who Flew

Outstanding and immersive . . . I devoured this in one go

—— book blogger Lily SugarPlum Faery

An imaginative journey to a stunning fantasy world, full of twists and heart . . . an absolute corker . . . filled with swashbuckling adventure . . . an enthralling fantasy that moves through dark and grisly scenes of grave peril to positively touching moments of profound friendship. An incredibly imaginative narrative that fills its reader with wonder and thrills while also not being afraid to share quieter moments of real heart.

—— The Daily Express

There is a touch of Phillip Pullman about the world that Murray creates, and Murray matches Pullman lyrical prose [...] The comparison, however, should not take away from Murray's originality [...] the characters themselves, led by the plucky Ellie, anchor Orphans of the Tide in an urgent, human reality.

—— Irish Times

The energetic steampunk vibe overlies a thoughtful fable about compassion and justice

—— New Statesman
