The Artemis Fowl #3: Eternity Code Graphic Novel

I'd heard about Artemis Fowl, a well-known kid's book series, so I picked up the graphic novel version at my local library on a whim, and I was hooked. I am an adult, love graphic novels and I was enchanted with this series. The artwork is lovely, the story fun, lively imaginative and kooky. I love the characters especially the Dwarf. I can't imagine the actual novels to be any better than this. Some graphic novel adaptation of novels are pedestrian, but these books are an artistic storytelling medium that stand on their own.The artwork is delicate and the the artist has created a worldview and characters that not only keep you reading but would also serve as the model for a wonderful animated movie. The colorist provides some unusually color choices for the the characters, the fore and background and the shading (acid green, orange, etc.) that work well with not only the underground fairy world but the "normal" world as well. I prefer hardcopy graphic novels over kindle version as I love to take my time over the artwork, but in this case, I like how each panel pops out and enhances the storytelling process. Read as kindle or as a hand-held graphic novel, you will not be disappointed!

My nephew is a picky reader and needs a little help sometimes. I got this as a gateway to the actual novel when he gets to that point. My sister says he loved them and wants to read more. Thats what Id hoped for from an 8yr old boy. They are accessible to him on more than one level (visual/cognitive) and there is less pressure to read a page full of text but the language is not oversimplified just because its a graphic novel.

Read this book originally 15 or so years ago and loved it then. Decided to see how this new format would feel. Really great story, can't wait for the movie

Incredibly fun story with wonderful artwork. Too notch. Highly recommended. Can't wait to read the next book in this series..

good story good art availability in print awesomeness. but one things for sure there is no way under any circumstances that this is even remotely like harry potter. they are both good but are completely different. OK? so stop say this is like harry potter. thanks.

I have always been a fan of this book seriesIt's great thank you so much I just love it

My son loves this series!

I bought this book for my grandson who is a big Eoin Colfer fan and he loves it!! It arrived on time and in excellent condition.

I've been waiting a long time for the next graphic novel of the Artemis Fowl series to come out and I shall gladly wait for the next one in line! In my opinion, this novel has well depicted the original novel "The Eternity Code" with its characters and settings. Would recommend this book to those who would like to see Artemis Fowl in colour!

A great story, well illustrated I love reading the books and my daughters love the graphic novels.

I read all books from Artemis Fowl collection and i really like it. When i saw that a graphic novel was done, i add to have it, and it corresponded to my expectations.

Great book- great series! Our 10year old daughter loves this series. Also great service Amazon- thanks
