Once again an evil plot threatens the magical world, and once again Artemis Fowl is being blamed. Only this time - he's innocent. Will this business keep Artemis from the time critical rescue of his father? Can the magical world be saved? 
 The Arctic Incident adds a welcomed level of depth to the people, fairies, dwarfs, etc., that we met in the first book. Bathroom humor, swearing in fairy, and severe injuries are at much the same level in this book as the first, but this one also contains non-graphic killing. Overall an enjoyable read and a step up from the first book in the series.
