About the Author:
Eoin Colfer was born in Wexford, Ireland in 1965. He qualified as a primary school teacher, and spent about four years working in Saudi Arabia, Tunisia and Italy. In 2001 the first Artemis Fowl book was published, and the series went on to sell 20 million copies around the world. Eoin was able to resign from teaching and concentrate fully on writing, including his two mystery novels PLUGGED and SCREWED. He now lives in Ireland with his wife and two children.
Review:
" Dominated, driven, and fully animated by a refreshingly original voice . . . Great writing."--Lisa Scottoline, "The Washington Post"
" Incomparably clever and witty . . . Has a Quentin Tarantino-meets-Carl Hiaasen quality."--"Los Angeles Times"
" Lots of bloody fun." --"The New York Times Book Review"
"[The narrator's] nicely evoked mix of Irish fatalism, resigned violence, and hilarity would make any story a winner; the cast of witty, quirky supporting characters and the pleasingly twisted story line are a bonus." --"Booklist"
"Colfer's work is entertaining and expertly judged. His terse, muscular prose makes even a car chase seem like a new idea, and his McEvoy is a durable raconteur." --"Kirkus Review"
"Colfer presents a second glorious episode (after Plugged) in the violent, hilarious, and just plain bizarre life of Irish army vet and Jersey casino owner Dan McEvoy....noir devotees with a twisted sense of humor will eat it up." --"Library Journal"
"Incredible imagination won't suffice to solve this spectacular whodunit, a five-star story in the vein of Dave Barry that has more twists and turns than a California cloverleaf. Tell everyone you know to get SCREWED. Better still, buy a copy of it." --"Bookreporter.com"
