German shepherds threaten attack, a finger is amputated (and reattached with magic), and an explosion blows a hole through a fairy wing. Some bad guys betray their own and kill them with guns, once at close range to the back of the head. Still, a few bad guys go down, one from a kind of electric shock, and another falls in lava. As with the first book, Artemis Fowl, there's a whole lot of fantasy action violence here, but major bloodshed is averted in a climactic battle with the help of sophisticated fairy weaponry that knocks enemies unconscious instead of killing them. A graphic novel version is also available, as well as a movie of the first two books joined together set for release in 2020. Parents need to know that The Arctic Incident is the second book of eight in the Artemis Fowl storyline.
