title: The Artemis Fowl Files: The Ultimate Guide to the Best-selling Series
author:  Eoin Colfer 
description: Grade 5-8No, this is not a sequel to the previous titles; it's a companion book. It includes two original short stories, one a prequel to <i>Artemis Fowl</i> (the first) about Captain Holly Short and how she became a member of the LEP, and the other a story about Artemis looking for the Fei Fei Tiara (Seventh Dwarf). In it, readers see Mulch working with Artemis for the first time. There are also games; readers can practice fairy code, learn the gnomish alphabet, do a crossword puzzle or a find-a-word (the latter may cause problems in libraries). Finally, they can read interviews with Artemis, Captain Short, Butler, Mulch Diggums, Foaly, Commander Root, and the author. With the write-in caveat in mind, this volume will give all of those Fowler fans something to read while waiting for the next book.<i>Saleena L.
