If you were to write a review for a daily paper, about this book, which qualities would you focus mainly on?

Artemis Fowl is a young-adult fantasy novel about a twelve-year-old criminal mastermind from Dublin. Unlike most main characters in young-adult novels, Artemis is an antihero instead of the hero of the series. He is a deviant mastermind whose ultimate goal is to steal gold from the fairy world, by whatever means. The author hoped to "write the fairy world from a new angle, creating fairies who were not just good or bad, but had a lot of human qualities, family problems, neuroses, the works." In this way, the novels are a combination of real-life and "updated" Irish mythology.
