Artemis Fowl è davvero un genio criminale? Sì, visto che a dodici anni è riuscito a impadronirsi dell'oro custodito dal Popolo delle creature fatate e a beffarsi della magia grazie al proprio stupefacente Q.I. Cinico, senza scrupoli e provvisto di una schiacciante superiorità intellettuale, Artemis ha tuttavia un punto debole - l'amore per la madre, che pretende di mandarlo a scuola come un moccioso qualunque, e per il padre, misteriosamente scomparso fra i ghiacci dell'Artico. Ed è appunto per ritrovare Fowl Senior che Artemis deve chiedere aiuto ai suoi nemici di sempre, Spinella Tappo della polizia elfica e il suo burbero comandante Julius Tubero. Un'inedita alleanza che darà vita a una turbinosa avventura magico-tecnologica condita con robuste dosi di azione, suspense e humour nero.
