About this listen

The unabridged, digital audiobook edition of Eoin Colfer’s Artemis Fowl and the Last Guardian, the unbelievable finale to the multi award-winning Artemis Fowl series. Read by the actor Nathaniel Parker.

Is this Armageddon for the Artemis Fowl?

Opal Koboi, power-crazed pixie, is plotting to exterminate mankind and become fairy queen. If she succeeds, the spirits of long-dead fairy warriors will rise from the earth, inhabit the nearest available bodies and wreak mass destruction. But what happens if those nearest bodies include crows, or deer, or badgers - or two curious little boys by the names of Myles and Beckett Fowl?

Yes, it’s true. Criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl’s four-year-old brothers could be involved in destroying the human race. Can Artemis and Captain Holly Short of the Lower Elements Police stop Opal and prevent the end of the world?

Sad to see this series end, at least for Artemis, but Nathaniel Parker is the best audiobook narrator I have ever heard. His incredible voice talent and delivery make this story come alive.

Thank you for entertaining our family over the last few months. It took a while to get used to the new narrator. However once we did, the narration was excellent.

Great finale to a wonderful series

What made the experience of listening to The Last Guardian: Artemis Fowl, Book 8 the most enjoyable?

Just being able to take it with me and listen to it was great.

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's hard to have a favorite. It was like listening to your favorite band get back together. All of them have a little something that makes them special

Have you listened to any of Nathaniel Parker’s other performances? How does this one compare?

No I haven't, though I like the way he read. He was easy to listen to and I enjoyed his different character voices

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I knew that I wouldn't be able to. Life is a bit busy and knew I would need to stop and start. I do though know that this is one that I will listen on long road trips with the family as they have listened to Artimes Folwer CD's in the past

Loved it
