Artemis Fowl and the Pursuit of Time
Introduction:
Opal Kobi has fled to the past to escape recapture by the LEP. In the dark alleyways of Victorian London she intends to twist history to her will and make herself Queen, not only of the world, but of all of time itself. Artemis Fowl and Captain Holly Short must follow the power mad pixie back into the past and stop her before she can complete her diabolical scheme. However it shall not be easy. Opal's magic is more powerful than ever before and, as if that was not sufficient, she intends to recruit followers to her cause. Artemis may be the greatest criminal mastermind of the 21st century, but is he a match for the most ingenious, the most mysterious and the most feared criminals of the 19th?
Author's Note: During this story I shall endeavour to be as historically accurate as I can, explaining points which I feel require elaboration in footnotes and specifically mentioning if I make a conscious historical inaccuracy (sometimes I'll need to for the sake of the story). However, if whilst reading this fic, you notice a historical error that I haven't referenced, please feel free to say so in a comment and I will make sure that I either amend the mistake or insert a note stating that it is an inaccuracy.
This is an indirect sequel to my previous Artemis Fowl fanfiction "Old Dogs and New Tricks". Reading it before this story is by no means necessary, but it might help marginally to more fully understand several parts of the story and you might even enjoy it for its own sake!
(Semi-Spoilers) In Artemis Fowl and the Last Guardian we saw present day Opal's plot to take over the Earth. In this story we shall see what would have happened if past Opal had left her future self to rot in prison and made her own attempt at world domination. This story, therefore, essentially replaces The Last Guardian in terms of chronology. Savvy?
Finally please (as I always say) review. I love reading your feedback and comments, and I generally try to reply to them all. I hope you enjoy.
