This is a coming-of-age book meant for adolescent readers. A major theme in Artemis Fowl is the struggle between good and evil. Our protagonist, Artemis, is not a hero at all and is, in fact, an anti-hero. He has committed his time to plotting and executing criminal enterprises. This often leads him to acts of cruelty, as when he kidnaps the fairy Holly Short against her will. Despite this, as readers we often find ourselves rooting for Artemis. This is due to the fact that it is clear that he cares deeply about his family, as well as Butler and Juliet. He is driven by a desire to restore his family name.
