Another great Book read By a genius.:
Artemis Fowl and his great adventures, I won't spoil the plot, this review is about the CD's. They are packaged in a cardboard slip folder. No plastic jewel case here so treat with care.

Artemis book series:
My teen kids love this series. They want all the five or six available
They read them very fast and can not wait for each one to arrive.
I will read them myself soon
Another Excellent Artemis Fowl:
Purchased the Audio CDs for travel, and just like the other 3 books, Nathaniel Parker does an excellent job in narrating. If you enjoy Jim Dale (Harry Potter Series), you'll enjoy Nathaniel Park too. Book 4 offers a ton of adventure and suspense, but also contains highs and lows in the story line. Like every Artemis Book, it leaves you wanting more.
