Review: The Arctic Incident

The Arctic Incident The Arctic Incident by Eoin Colfer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Hooter: 13 year old wiz kid / master villain turns over  good leaf to join forces with the fairies to fight a common enemy in the second book of the series. 

Continuing on the series, Artemis joins forces with fairies to fight a common enemy in a tit for tat partnership. The bigger story this time around is for Captain Holly and Root as they take on a revolution from outside the system turning friends with all those they fought historically to take on a bigger enemy. There is probably more action in this book versus the previous one but also a lot more trust being built amongst the frenemies. As a children's book, I think the progression from black and white to lighter shades of grey has been nicely done. As an adult, this continues to be a nostalgic quick read of simpler times and also a detox if you been grilling your brain with Dark and other mindboggling series.
