What this book is about
The evil pixie Opal Koboi has broken out of a psychiatric facility and framed LEPrecon officer Root for murder. Even worse, Artemis Fowl's memory of the entire fairy world has been wiped — and Opal's plan, if not stopped, will destroy everyone he has ever known. The fourth Artemis Fowl novel is the darkest in the series, with a major character death that genuinely shocked its middle-grade audience and a more serious emotional register than its predecessors.
