EOIN COLFER WRITES THE BEST BOOKS EVEH
From the Artemis Fowl books:
"So, even though his involvement with the goblin uprising this year was to be traumatic, terrifying, and dangerous, it was probably the best thing that could have happened to him. At least he spent some time outdoors, and got to meet some new people.
It's a pity most of them were trying to kill him."
