Illustrated by
Giovanni Rigano.
Also adapted by Andrew Donkin. Color by Paolo Lamanna. In this graphic-novel re-envisioning, Holly Short and Artemis Fowl must prevent evil pixie Opal Koboi from destroying the underground fairy capital, but Artemis's memory has been wiped and Holly is wanted for murder. The novel's condensation is much to the benefit of the plot, though readers will have to squint to read the elf-sized font and tiny--though dynamic--stylized comic panels.
