"Call me if there's any trouble."
"Ok, boss."
"Oh, and one more thing."
"Yes?"
"Don't call me."
"Well, young man, have you found anyone worthy of your respect?"
Artemis smiled back. "Yes," he said, "I believe I have."

If your fourteen, or me, you'll absolutely love it. What can I say, I'm a sucker for the charismatic youth genius/criminal mastermind and anything set in Ireland.

The thing with me and Artemis Fowl is that really... I hate Artemis Fowl. So I don't really know why I keep buying the books. They're the smuggest books full of the smuggest characters doing the most smug things in the most smug way they possible can.
It annoys.

Scant stooped slightly, almost bowing. "No, no, Miss Koboi. We live to serve. Only yo serve"
"Yes", agreed Opal. "And you live only as long as you do serve".
"If it makes any difference", [Root] said quietly, almost awkwardly, "I'm proud of you, Holly".
"Can you open thee remotely, Foaly?"

"Can you open thee remotely, Foaly?"
"But of course, Commander. I have managed, quite ingeniously, to marry my operating system with the terminal's old computers. That wasn't easy as it sounds-"
"I'll take your word for it", said the commander, cutting Foaly off. "Just push the button, before I come out there and push it with your face".
"Go and save Artemis. That's the last order I'll ever give you, Captain."
I need to breathe. Not soon, now. If not now, never.
"Greetings", said the screen Artemis. "How nice for you to see me. Doubtless this will be the first intelligent conversation you have had for some time".
The real Artemis smiled. "Correct", he replied.
"I paused for a second there", continued the screen Artemis, "to give you a chance to respond, thus qualifying this as a conversation".
Artemis took a breath. "I am so sorry about Julius. I know our relationship was a rocky one, but I had nothing but respect and admiration for the commander",
Holly wiped her eyes with the heels of her hands. She said nothing, just nodding. If Artemis needed another reason to go after Opal Koboi, the sight of the elfin captain so disturbed was it".
"Seven and a half hours to save the world. Isn't there some law that says we get at least twenty-four?".

So far, the best!

”Glad to see you're alive by the way, big man. There was a rumor going round the underworld that you were dead”.
”I was”, said Butler, heading for the security booth. ”But I-m better now”,
”I hope you're as clever as you keep telling everyone you are.”

”I never tell anybody exactly how clever I am. They would be too scared.”
