Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Where was the city were Artemis found the 'Book'?

Answer: Ho Chi Minh City

Artemis had come to this city to find a sprite who had the book he was looking for.

2. Which is the language that closely resembles the Elvish language "Gnommish"?

Answer: Egyptian

The symbols of the Gnommish language were similar to those of the Egyptian language, but were different enough for them to slip through Artemis' translator.

3. What type of creature is Foaly?

Answer: Centaur

Foaly is the technicial genius that made sure no humans found their way into the underground cities.

4. At the full moon, Holly Short went to Tara to renew her magic.

Answer: False

She didn't go to Tara because she thought that every fairy who could venture out of the underground would be there, so she chose a spot just off the southeast coast.

5. Where did Artemis place Holly's locator, to stop the Fairies from finding her?

Answer: On a Japanese whaler

After Artemis planted the locator here, the Commander Fairy went to the whaler looking for Holly and was nearly blown up.

6. On what body part did Commander Root put a pressurized dart?

Answer: His index finger

As soon as Root placed the latex finger onto his index finger, it took the color of his flesh and the shape of his finger.

7. Where was the safe where Mulch the Dwarf found one of Artemis' copies of the Book?

Answer: In a picture of Artemis Fowl Senior

The painting was hung up in the hall of Fowl Manor. There was a dummy safe behind the picture to try to throw burglars off the trail.

8. After Root had been stripped of his Commmander's position, and the post given to Cudgeon, Cudgeon sent in the troll who Holly had knocked out earlier in the book. Who killed him this time?

Answer: No One

Butler had nearly been killed by the troll, but Holly had healed him with her magic. Holly then asked Butler to spare the troll's life because he owed her for saving his life. "Butler rolled the unconscience troll onto an armour trolley" and sent it out through the doorway.

9. Was the Green Rinse the weapon that the Fairies used on Fowl Manor, to try and get back their gold?

Answer: No

It was called the Blue Rinse/Bio-bomb. When the bomb blows up, it destroys only living tissue. The surroundings are left as they were before the bomb goes off.

10. Artemis would let Holly Short go free if the fairies paid this amount of small unmarked gold ingots. How much was it?

Answer: One tonne

If a human managed to part a fairy from its gold, then it was his to keep. Artemis managed to get one tonne from the fairies, but gave about half back so Holly could cure his mother from being bed-ridden.
