The Artemis Fowl Series is one of my treasured favorites. From book 1, Artemis Fowl has included an enthralling mix of magic, science, humor, and clever plot twists. Artemis Fowl: The Last Guardian, the final Artemis Fowl book, continues this tradition, ensuring that the series ends with a bang, and surprisingly, a few moments that will tug at the heart strings of any Artemis Fowl fan. But this is amid the wild action of magic and science combined, creating a intense and thrilling mix. However, one of my favorite details of this book is the comeback and surprising heroism of Mulch, the dwarf, which is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud. The Last Guardian is a fitting finish for Artemis Fowl.
