Artemis Fowl

[laura_seabrook]

I bought an Artemis Fowl book yesterday - The Opal Deception.

I usually try and read something while I travel by bus. I've misplaced the most recent library book I'd borrowed for this - Food for the Fishes (where the fuck have I put it?) - and saw the Artemis Fowl book in a discard bin for $2.

OK, it's a puffin, which means that it's meant to be a "children's book" but the writing flows really well, and it reminds me of the SF books I've been reading recently (by Keith Laumer and Brian Aldiss). Seems like lots of fun!
