Review of 'The Arctic Incident' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

"We're being led by an idiot with a crayon!"
This second instalment of this most successful of series sees our acerbic hero doing something good for a change, rather than attempting to kidnap a fairy and ransom her for gold. Artemis Senior (father to our lead) was missing, presumed dead but has since turned up, himself for ransom. But all is not happy below ground and Artemis has fairy concerns as well as his own to deal with.

The humour carries on, the story is as gripping as ever. A very good continuation indeed.
