Artemis Fowl; The Arctic Incident

Oops!  I read the whole series of seven books but didn't blog!  Blogging time!
Artemis Fowl; The Arctic Incident, by Eoin Colfer, 277 pages

               Is it likely that a 12 or 13 year old will trade the task of saving the world, if the other side (fairies) save the child's father?  Well, it turns out that that does happen.  The moment Captain Holly Short, Julius Root, and Foaly discover the attempt of goblins trying to take over the fairy world and secure information that a human's helping, of course they suspect Artemis Fowl.  It is only expected for this to be the case after the kidnapping of fairies and stealing of gold!  Everyone in the world would suspect him!  Well, it turns out that Artemis is not behind this all.  Since Artemis was there anyway, Root decided to take Artemis's help to figure out what really was going on.  If I were the fairies, I certainly would not have made that decision.   Artemis was a cruel, and greedy person.  Saying that, Artemis used this opportunity to help himself; he tried rescuing his father with the fairies' help after helping them get to the bottom of their own mystery.  It turned out that a horrible fairy pixie, Opal Koboi, was using her intelligent brains to try and overthrow the LEP.  She mesmerized a human to help the goblins.  Opal certainly proved that Artemis Fowl isn't the worst person in the world!  She wants to rule the world, fairy and human, by revealing the fairies to humans and making them fight.  With the help of Mulch Diggums, a criminal dwarf, Artemis, Holly, Root, and Foaly stop Koboi and her ally, Cudgeon from seizing the fairy world.  Now, they went to the Arctic, but will Artemis's father be saved?
