Time travel hurts my brain! ⌛🤯💥

(A-) 84% | Very GoodNotes: Wherein logic pains (aches your brain), a hero's hormone-drunk, and sense begets kiss-regret: a fandom ship is sunk.*Check out progress updates for detailed commentary: Progress updates:03/26/2024 (1) - Preamble(1) Most of my memories about this, from the first time I read it, was that all the time travel complexities hurt my brain, but in a good way—in an exercise no-pain-no-gain sort of way. There's a lot of mental heavy-lifting.- I felt the same about Umberto Eco's ...

The entire series of Artemis Fowl has been an enjoyable romp, fraught with the perils of real death (a major character died in an earlier novel), yet also replete with hilarious toilet humor (Mulch Diggums and his bum-flap overalls which allow him as a dwarf to. . . um, digestively process dirt). Although Artemis is a human being, he has found a way to remain in contact with the fae-folk, in general, and Holly Short (a fairy) and Foaly (a centaur) in particular. They have served to deviate Artem...

"Fabulicious" "Peace be inside me, tolerance all around me, forgiveness in my path. Now, Mervall, show me where the filthy human is so that I may feed him his organs." I've never being a fan of time travelling: too many things to think about. But I guess I should've seen this coming, with Colfer wanting to explore pretty much every fantasy element he could think of. Still, I think this became one of my favorite time travel books. It's not just because of the ever so entertaining Opal's you...

Artemis Fowl finds himself up against his most dangerous opponent ever --> himself!!! So a time paradox story; can the Artemis Fowl franchise succeed where the Heroes TV show, The Star Trek Voyager finale, the 12 Monkeys TV show and so many other franchises imploded?I getting to an age when I feel that sci-fi or fantasy franchises that don't use a time travel story are the only one's worth reading. Yet somehow Eoin Colfer puts together a pretty entertaining time paradox story with some sweet ...

Done reading THE TIME PARADOX - Book 6 in Artemis Fowl Octalogy, entirely read in Amazon Kindle. All in all, I give it a solid 5 of 5 stars! This is by far my favorite. Artemis Fowl becomes a big brother to twins - Beckett and Myles. Sadly, his mom is terribly ill. There is no cure but the Irish boy genius will do whatever it takes to heal his mom. Even if it means changing the past. The last four chapters are over the top. Totally ambitious storytelling though all is great. The author finds a w...

A very gripping tale... reading novels like these ensure that a parallel to the 'popular literature,' there is something called 'meaningful literature'. Cheers to the author!

You do not own a copy of the rule book, and if you do, you have certainly never opened it. I liked this book more than the last one. But still this book has little problem which I faced. In this book, Artemis' mother gets ill by some serious disease. There is only one cure which is an extinct species. He asks Fairies for help. With the help of fairies, Artemis gets back in time to find that species. But he comes to know that, in past time, his younger self and Opal Koboi (antagonist), are ...

Notes: Treats adolescence as a mind-altering drug and youth as a more singularly-focused, less compunctious state of being.

I LOVED this book! Eoin Colfer writes such great fun to read stories! I loved the ending of this book and the whole idea of the book too with the whole time traveling and Artemis meeting his past self and being outsmarted by his younger self. After reading this book, I definitely want to reread the first one again.

Everyone must give Artemis Fowl a chance! It's a great series and one of my absolute favorites!
