Book Description
================
From School Library Journal
Grade 5-7 -Identity fraud is at the heart of this fourth book in the 
series. To all appearances, Opal Koboi, pixie and archenemy of the fairies, 
is under close surveillance as she lies in a coma. Artemis Fowl, the 
brilliant 14-year-old criminal mastermind, has had his mind wiped clean 
of all knowledge of fairies, and, therefore, of all prior goodness he 
has learned. When the real Opal escapes and leaves behind a DNA-perfect 
clone of herself, her revenge against all those who opposed her commences 
with deadly fury. Among the barrage of high-tech gadgets and continuous 
action sequences and plot twists are moments that give even Artemis 
Fowl pause as he contemplates friendship, responsibility, and death. 
The prose is clunky and the characters speak in clichés, but those who 
enjoyed the earlier books won't care. The humor (heavily dosed with 
flatulence jokes) and creativity carry the narrative through the tight 
spots and impossible situations.

From AudioFile
The underground world of the fairies again confronts the evil genius 
of the nefarious pixie, Opal Koboi. Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon 
(Lower Elements Police) needs the help of young mastermind Artemis Fowl 
to save both humans and fairies. But Artemis has been mind-wiped and 
has no recollection of his previous adventures with the LEP. Nathaniel 
Parker strides confidently into the worlds of fantasy and technology 
that unite humans and fairies. He unerringly re-creates the many voices 
from the first three installments, and his appropriately hurried pacing 
takes the listener from one breathless calamity to another. Parker's 
stereotyped Asian accent becomes a bit annoying, but this is a small 
complaint in an otherwise welcome revival of Colfer's panoply of characters.-

Criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl is back...and so is his cunning enemy, 
Opal Kobol. At the start of the fourth adventure, Artemis has returned 
to his unlawful ways. He's in Berlin, perparing to steal a famous impressionist 
painting from a German bank. He has no idea that his old rival, Opal, 
has escaped from prison by cloning herself. She's left her double behind 
in jail and, now free, is exacting her revenge on all those who put 
her there, including Artemis.

Meanwhile in the lower elements, Opal has planted a trap for Captain 
Holly Short and Commander Root of the LEPrecon fairy police--Root is 
killed, and Holly is framed for the murder. Instead of staying around 
to defend herseld, Holly rushes to the surface to warn Artemis. But 
before Holly and Artemis can get away, Opal arrives and abducts them 
both. Artemis is faced with a world he does not believe in and an enemy 
with an infernal plan to destroy this world forever.
