KAN HON RÄDDA CIVILISATIONEN PÅ MÅNEN? Månstaden Artemis är paradiset i rymden – för rika turister och excentriska miljardärer, alltså. För Jazz är det alger till frukost, ölsubstitut på kvällen och en brits under marken. Till den dag hon erbjuds en oemotståndlig summa för att begå det perfekta brottet. Men givetvis är inget så enkelt som det framstår. Jazz upptäcker snart att hon hamnat mitt i en konspiration för kontrollen av hela Artemis – och att hennes enda chans att överleva hänger på en plan som är betydligt mer riskfylld än det brott hon lovat att utföra. ARTEMIS är en fartfylld thriller i en framtidsvision som känns läskigt realistisk. Med Andy Weirs omisskännliga humor blir det ett actiondrama som är lika spännande som underhållande. ”En av årets bästa sci-fi-romaner.” – Booklist ”Den här romanen kommer att bli en hit!” – The Guardian ”Actionspäckad tekno-thriller av högsta klass.” – USA Today ”En påträngande god bok ... djupt och innerligt fängslande.” – Vox ”Ännu en gång utmärker sig Weir som en mästare på detaljer.” – Space.com

Artemis

Willkommen in Artemis! Der ersten und einzigen Stadt auf dem Mond. Eine Stadt, in der zweitausend Menschen fernab der Erde ein neues Zuhause gefunden haben. Eine Stadt, die den Touristen ein unvergleichliches Weltraum-Erlebnis bietet. Eine Stadt, in der es keine Kriminalität gibt – bis zu dem Tag, an dem der erste Mord in Artemis geschieht und eine Reihe von Ereignissen in Gang setzt, die die friedliche Stadt der Zukunft in eine tödliche Falle verwandelt ...

Artemis is a literary, iconographic, and archaeological study of the ancient Greek goddess of the hunt, who presided over the transitions and mediations between the wild and the civilized, youth and maturity, life and death. Beginning with a study of the early origins of Artemis and her cult in the Bronze and Archaic Ages, Budin explores the goddess' persona and her role in the lives of her worshippers. This volume examines her birth and childhood, her place in the divine family, her virginity, and her associations with those places where the wilds become the "cities of just men." The focus then turns to Artemis’ role in the lives of children and women, particularly how she helps them navigate the transition to adulthood and, perhaps too often, death. Budin goes on to reconsider some of the more harrowing aspects of Artemis’ mythology, such as plague and bloodshed, while also examining some of her kinder, oft overlooked associations. Finally, the role of Artemis in the Renaissance and modern society is addressed, from the on-going fascination with the "breasts" on the statue of Artemis of Ephesos to the Artemisian aspects of Katniss Everdeen. Written in an accessible style, Artemis is a crucial resource for students not only of Greek myth, religion and cult, but also those seeking to understand the lives and roles of girls and women in ancient Greece, as this goddess presided over their significant milestones, from maiden to wife to mother.

Ten thousand years ago, humans and fairies fought a great battle for the magical island of Ireland. When it became clear to the fairy families that they could never win, they decided to move their civilization underground and keep themselves hidden from the humans. All the fairy families agreed on this, except the 8th family, the demons. The demons planned to lift their small island out of time until they had regrouped and were ready to wage war on the humans once more. However the time spell went wrong, and the island of Hybras was catapulted into Limbo, where it has remained for ten thousand years. Now, the tainted time spell is deteriorating and demons are being sucked back into the present space and time. The fairy Council is naturally concerned about this and is monitoring any materializations. When the spell’s deterioration accelerates, the materializations become unpredictable. Even the fairy scientists cannot figure out where the next demon will pop up. But someone can. Artemis Fowl, teenage criminal mastermind has solved temporal equations that no normal human should be intelligent enough to understand. So when a confused and frightened demon pops up in a Sicilian theatre, Artemis Fowl is there to meet him. Unfortunately, he is not the only one. A second, mysterious party has also solved the temporal equations, and has managed to abduct the demon before Artemis can secure him. This is a disaster for the fairy people, as this demon was no ordinary fairy. He was the last demon warlock, the one who held the key to the survival of the entire demon race. It is up to Artemis and his old comrade, Captain Holly Short, to track down the missing demon and rescue him, before the time spell dissolves completely and the lost demon colony returns violently to Earth.

Artemis Fowl The Lost Colony

De fleste kender Artemis Fowl, men ved de egentlig, hvordan det unge geni begyndte sin kriminelle løbebane? I denne første historie om Artemis hører vi om, hvordan han opdagede feernes underjordiske verden og besluttede sig for at udnytte sin viden til at samle masser af rigdomme. Uden at tøve lagde han sig ud med en hær af bevæbnede og farlige feer, pruttende dværge og ekstremt avanceret teknologi. Vi møder også Butler, Artemis‘ kampsportstrænede livvagt, der viser sig at være en god hjælp under kidnapningen af kaptajn Holly Short fra Nedre Imperiums Sikkerhedspoliti og de efterfølgende kampe. Eoin Colfer er født i 1965 i Irland. Han er uddannet fra Dublin Universitet, men har rejst og arbejdet over det meste af verden, heriblandt Tunesien, Saudi Arabien og Italien. Indtil Colfer udgav Artemis Fowl-serien, arbejdede han som lærer; men lærergerningen blev tilsidesat, da det blev muligt for ham at skrive på fuld tid. Serien omhandler og følger den unge Artemis Fowl: en superintelligent knægt, nedstammende fra en familie af forbrydere og svindlere. Det er dog på samme tid en splittet familie. Artemis' far er forsvundet og hans mor har netop fået et psykisk sammenbrud. Alt sammen efterladende det helt frit for Artemis at udleve sine forbryderiske evner.

Artemis Fowl 1

This book is a collection of studies about the Greek and Roman goddesses—Artemis and Diana—who ruled creatures of the wild. Although they arose separately in Greek and Roman cultures, they were often treated as equivalent. These goddesses had the power of giving birth, health and death. Diana’s temples were built at places where three roads meet, writes Servius (ad Aen. IV.511), outside the city itself, and so they were common, safe meeting places which belonged to no one but were the sites for federal councils, hosted by the goddess. Artemis was associated in particular with bears, and Diana with deer, but both were generally associated with wild animals, as well as with the different phases of life. This volume will be useful not only for researchers on this subject, but also for courses in Greek and Roman studies, mythology, history, and women’s studies.
