These are 4 of the series of Artemis Fowl Books. My kids have loved as much as Harry Potter and Percy Jackson.

The stories are about a 12 year old criminal mastermind who discovers that fairies are real and are much more advanced than us. Therefore he sets out to steal their technology for his own evil ends and for a high profit. However faries aren't the flimsy little things you may think!!!. The books have conected but stand alone stories with a wild cast of characters. The 4 books are Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code (brand New) Artemis Fowl: The Opal Deception Artemis Fowl: The Lost Colony Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox
