INTRODUCTION
It has been a year since Artemis' resurrection. If you could call that a resurrection – what with the involvement of technology that is way past the intellectual ability of humans. Cloning. As far as fairy technological history is concerned, Artemis is the first ever successful attempt at cloning. Opal Koboi managed to do it once, but her clone, Nopal, was not much of a breakthrough. Sure, it was a splitting image of the real Opal, but it never had the diabolical attributes of the deranged pixie. In fact, it didn't have any spirit at all. It was like a zombie, an empty shell. Also her motor skills are not fully developed, rendering her bedridden, utterly useless. But Artemis Fowl Jr., a genius, a mastermind, a billionaire, and most of all, a teenager, was able to see past the imperfections of Nopal, construct an idea under the usual saving-the-world pressure, and had himself cloned, shortly after his death. Oh yes, the Artemis that we have always known and loved (but sometimes hated) managed to escape death. The one and only Artemis Fowl resides in his fully functional clone with 6 toes on his left foot. And now he's back for a new groundbreaking idea.
