Secret Message
In European editions, the code on the cover reads "Think fairy, think again" the slogan for the original Artemis Fowl. The code is not written in Gnommish or Centaurian, instead supposedly written in the "eternity code" with which the C Cube is encrypted.
In the hardcover edition, the code for Eoin Colfer Artemis Fowl The Eternity Code Puffin is printed on the spine underneath the dustjacket, allowing the reader to decipher the code inside the book, which is a message from Artemis asking the reader to help him regain his memories by spreading the message that Artemis Fowl must find Mulch Diggums
In the reprint of the book, the Eternity Code is changed to Gnommish.

“The message you give your children when you discipline with love is I care too much about you to let you misbehave. I care enough about you that Im willing to spend time and effort to help you learn what is appropriate. All children need the security and stability of food, shelter, love, and protection, but unless they also receive effective and appropriate discipline, they wont feel secure.”
—Stephanie Marston (20th century)
