I also enjoyed it.

I liked how he explained ghosts.

"You belong in Gryffindor,
where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve and chivalry
set Gryffindors apart."

St. Peter was funny...that was one of the best things in the book from my point of view.

Though I didn't like the technology. I mean, isn't God and Satan bigger than human things because of their supernaturalness?

"You belong in Gryffindor,

I would think so, but the technological advances add to the humor.
My church's priest enjoyed it.

It does.

I just have plausibility issues.

Then again all fantasy books aren't plausible when you think about it.

Quite.
I would usually have plausibility issues, especially in this situation, but I was enjoying the sarcasm to much to think about it.

I've resurrected the Arty thread.

According to Colfer in an interview Holly Short and Trouble Kelp are going to become romantically involved.

Oooo. Big surprise there.

That was sarcasm, right?

I've been expecting it since the short story about how Holly got her badge.

Ohhh Bugger. *Goes off to write fic that refutes Minermis and Trolly*

Nothing to see here, move along.

If he puts Artemis in a situation where he's romanticly involved with Minerva, I kill his dog.

You know it's going to happen.

He even fixed the age difference.

Nothing is for certain. I didn't know Nathaniel(

) was going to... die.

I hope Minerva falls of a roller coaster or something resembled in Final Destination.

Ianna Marid

Oh, come on, this is what foreshadowing is for.

Do I want it to happen?

No.

You don't want Minerva to die?

Ianna Marid

2 Jun 07 - 12:39

No, she's a little girl.

Do I want to see her again?

Nope.

I'll be sad to see a teenage female genius go, but pairing her up with Artemis is just so trite and uninspired.

Nothing to see here, move along.

Still, it beats the grossness of Holly and Artemis.

"You belong in Gryffindor,

Holly/Artemis gross? Pairings don't necessarily have to involve sex, in which case I'll agree: yeah that'll be gross.

The official cover art for Artemis Fowl: the graphic novel is now up on the web. Artemis basically looks like an alien and Holly's hair is all wrong. Meh...

Nothing to see here, move along.

I wasn't thinking of that...

Link?
