Wonderful! I love it. I don't get why ark sool is still in command though. But I like the way you describe the emotions and thoughts. :D Keep up the good stories!

I tink ive reviewed befor but this story is just to good. You are a terrific writer and should not stop.

I think I may love this story just for the father and son mindgames played in this chapter. Excellent job!

I loved the Artemis the First POV. It is funny to see what an outside force will think of a subject while the people involved don't even stop to consider that it is unusual.

nice. i enjoyed it

This story was written a few years ago, yet I still feel the need to tell you how awesome it is. Seriously, when I started looking at Artemis Fowl fanfiction there was nothing. Most of it had Mary Sues or Harry Potter crossovers. I almost cried with relief when I found this story. This exactly what I have been looking for.

My favorite thing about your story is the Father-Son relationship you had with Artemis Senior and his son. I am a sucker for strong platonic relationships. :). Your plot was also very intriguing and was written well.

Overall, thank you so much for writing this. It was awesome!

Interesting story; I'll definitely have to read more. :)

I just though I should point out that, in the prophecy, "fowl by name and fowl by nature", the second "fowl" should be spelt "foul". Unless, of course, you do actually mean "bird-like". ;p

My goodness, this has got to be the best Artemis Fowl fic I've ever read! :D I mean, Artemis was so in-character - his cleverness, his plans, the awesomeness... I also adored the way you characterized Artemis Senior - how' he's pretty quick on the uptake, but admittedly not as good as his son. :) I also loved the way you portrayed "Arty's Butler" versus "my Butler". And the "Artemis" moments where they spoke in tandem, and the references to the heist they did in Prague together when Artemis was a child... and that story about Artemis switching his and his father's bank accounts. XD You portrayed everyone brilliantly in-character. This fic was an absolute joy to read! :D Thank you for posting it here for us. Rock on! :D

I'm so very pleased to have read this story, as it's (at last) a high quality chaptered Artemis fic, which, as a new fan of the series, I've been looking for.

Your depiction of Artemis Fowl I was most refreshing in its accuracy. Where it seems common for fanfic writers to either peg him as goofy and dim (post-Arctic) or completely heartless (pre-Arctic) this story shows him as a real person, complexly formed and human. What I appreciated most was that he retained the cunning and steadiness of his former life, rather than becoming a saint or 'hapless parent #2.' The disclosure of his knowledge of Artemis' efforts to find him made perfect sense and I felt like someone should have been applauding as he stood up to the LEP as a father. The bits about the stolen rubies and Artemis' allowance were hilarious. In this fic is a man who I can actually picture as the real Artemis Fowl II's father, instead of just a fan's conceptually plausible interpretation. I love it.

My only critique is that there were a few typo's/errors which disrupted the flow of reading. Aside from that, I was hooked.

You certainly write (and dramatize) very well and I thank you for sharing this with everyone.

This is without a doubt the best AF-fanfiction I have read. It could have been taken from the original book.
It's not just the writing that is great, the whole plot is excellent. It was also interesting to read more about Artemis I and from his POV too.
Because english isn't my first language some parts was rather hard to understand. Mostly the parts with all the technical stuff and the rather complicated explanations. But it wasn't too hard and it is a great way for me to learn the language.
And I also have to say that you got the characters just right. They were absolutely not out of character.

Well, I guess I don't have much more to say about this. And no constructive criticism, sorry.

Ah! Ah! Still wonderful! Just re-read it, and still love it!
Yep...! ^^

Thank you! I sat up to the early hours reading this and loved every minute. You are obviously Eoin Colfer and I claim my £10. That line 'I didn't know how one judged the age of a centaur - perhaps you checked his teeth ...' was worthy of the master. More long fics please.

I think this is the first story I am adding to my favorite list. Job very well done
