I purchased this CD set for my class and could not be happier. I couldn’t imagine a library without it especially with so many reading (and time) impaired students, our dyslexic students are helped immeasurably by this audio. It does not hurt that the narrator is wonderfully expressive and truly brings the story to life. I could not recommend these five compact discs enough. Be sure to check your sellers rating before you buy.

Easy to connect to the T.V. Lots of hours of entertainment. Makes for a fun afternoon. I would recommend buying.

This review is particularly of Nathaniel Parker’s narration, and not so much of the Artemis Fowl book itself, as there are already so many reviews on that.

If you want an auditory treat, get this audiobook – Nat Parker is a genius when it comes to bringing these characters to life. He does wonderful accents – there are multiple Irish accents for Artemis, Butler, Juliet and Angeline, but many others for the fairy people which are just amazing. In addition, his own, natural speaking /reading voice is so smooth , resonant and perfectly paced that is is a treat in itself. Unlike other audiobooks which I have listened to, you can’t hear him breathing – with some readers you hear every big breath they take and it gets irritating. He reads it perfectly and the great fun is in the rapid dialogue exchanges where he must manage different voices with different accents as well as the narrator’s voice.

The story itself, well, there are some boring and technical parts which I tried to read, and Artemis’s character is not terribly likeable, but the way Parker voices him makes you feel some affection for the character.

If you like the books, this is a worthwhile addition because of the way the characters are brought to life – and if you didn’t like the books, it’s a great listen just for Parker’s enormous vocal talent.

I wasn’t sure how it would feel to read a book without pages…but I love it. It’s much easier to hold a Kindle with one hand than it is a paperback. The device is very light and the screen is very easy to read. I read all Sunday afternoon in the bright sun by a pool – no problem. I also thought that the pause between clicking the “next page” button and the actual print appearing would bother me, but I got used to it in no time. The best feature is being able to shop for a new book anytime, anywhere. I highly recommend it!

Very nice addition to my garmin gps. Small enough to fit almost anywhere in your vehicle, yet big enough to firmly hold the unit.

I’ve owned other steam vacs which were more expensive but did not do the job this one does. This model extracts the dirt and water with more suction than any other I’ve used in the past. I would highly recommend this unit. Don’t assume just because another model is newer or more expensive than it will do a better job. Buy this one and pocket the change.

Bought the unit Christmas last year. Family has played it maybe 20-30 hours and now disc failure.
Ta Da! In to the shop for repairs. The cost is not outrageous just disappointed that for $500.00 bucks in unit and games
and accessories this is the disc life on this one.
I know it’s an inexpensive console but we’re not talking Xbox 360 either. Just a simple format player.
I’m just saying…

It was a good investment especially when it was second hand and when it was for someone else. I wasn’t sure whether the description written would match the product in reality, but it did and I was glad and satisfied with it and so did the person who asked me to buy it.
