Artemis Fowl is an amazing series. If any of you haven't read at least one book, I very highly reccomend you get one by any means nessecary. A bit of a backstory on Artemis: He's a 13 year old with the highest IQ measured in Europe, who's deep interest in the supernatural makes him discover fairies. He goes on many misadventures, which I will not describe as they will lead to major spoilers. This series is the first since Eragon to capture my attention and leave me hungering for more. It has humor and witty characters, yet has dark themes and a literally breathtaking plot. You all should go read some!
