Artemis Fowl #6 Book Report
Yesterday I finished the 6th book in the Artemis Fowl series, and I believe that the most interesting character was Mulch Diggums. Mulch is a tunnel dwarf, a fairy species which tunnels underground.
One of the events that made him the most interesting character was when he did the "Tuba" on Artemis. The "Tuba" is the most insulting insult in dwarf culture, and the second was showing someone's bottom at the victim. "Tubas" involve the dwarf popping open his bum flap and then cleaning out all the dirt and grit in his system at the desired victim. I think it's very funny to imagine someone's ugly butt sticking at you, with all its hair. An addition to the effect is when you think of yourself covered in dirt and really smelly gas. When Mulch did the Tuba on Artemis, the author used a lot of funny details to describe what state Artemis was in. For example, he described how a clean blue suit suddenly turned brown and smelly. This made Mulch very interesting.
Another of the events that made him the most interesting was when he "trimmed weight". A dwarf can only do this once every decade or so, This is a dwarf reaction when the dwarf's heart rate gets above 200bpm. The dwarf sheds all its hair, and also liquefies all the fat on the body, combining it with a Tuba. Mulch did this on Butler, and I could just picture the interesting situation in my head. Butler being soaked with fat and gas, while dirt and hair were flying onto him - it must've been crazy!
All in all, Mulch Diggums was definitely the most interesting character in Artemis Fowl #6.
