it is a commonly held misconception that with the dawning of the 21st century and a

burgeoning new age of science, that magic has been chased out of our lives,

excised with surgical precision from our world as our awareness of the universe

expands. This is false. There are plenty of minor miracles lurking in the shadows.

For example, there exists in a sleepy house in Bristol an older woman who does

the most exquisite embroidery, many of which has the funny quality of appearing

and the first is influenced by the fact he is, as previously stated, 12 years of

age. In the past few weeks, they've traveled to Egypt, Vietnam, and various

parts of Germany. Tonight they will make their way to an old oak tree by a river

bend just outside of South Dublin. It will be the culmination of all of

Artemis's research. Remember the earlier remarks about minor miracles? Artemis Fowl

the second's father is presumed dead. His mother is in the middle of an extended

psychic break following the sinking of the Fowl Star. He doesn't need a minor
