"Ah, the ultimate enemy when you're an ex-criminal... yourself! It wasn't as good as some of the other ones (I think I liked the "Arctic Incident" better...) but it was enjoyable. I think it's precious how much Artemis loves his mother. Underneath that whole "villain" face, he's still a good son."

" Alright but my least favorite in the series. I got confused going back and forth between the two time zones. "
— Sharrid, 2/20/2014" Man this book was a mess. It was all over the place with little to no direction. Weak, totally weak! I hope the next one is better. "
— Ryan, 2/12/2014" I couldn't finish this book. It added one too many unnecessary plot devices. I could be wrong, but I could see where the book would end up and I didn't want to slosh through all of that...predictable...material. "
— Ellie, 2/11/2014" This book was slightly confusing, but I guess that happens with time travel and everything. Interesting to see Artemis battle with his younger self and realize just how much of a brat he was when Holly first met him. Also, Holly and Artemis kiss...not sure how I feel about that lol "
— Jenn, 1/21/2014" OMG the most trippy and mind messing book i have read in a long time. regardless of it being YA fiction. As usual Eion Colfer's brilliant wit and humor is throughout while still giving the reader the best impact of all the plot twists. A great read no matter age "
— Fortunecooki, 1/20/2014" Excellent segue into a more adulty storyline for future books. Opal is a great character. "
— Molly, 1/19/2014" In general, I don't like time travel plots, because most have plot holes that you can drive a tanker through...this one is no exception. I think this is the weakest in the series, thus far, though it wasn't bad enough for me to discontinue. "
— Gordon, 1/18/2014" Read this series a while ago, reviews to come! "
— Liyana, 1/18/2014" so far this is the best of the series, but it is hard to follow it. it is very nice "
