Eoin Colfer has confirmed that there will be a sixth Artemis Fowl book named Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox. The release date for the UK is set for 7 August 2008; the US is set for 15 July 2008.[1] In Colfer's video blogs, he mentions the book saying it may not be the last but the last one for at least 3 years.[2]
[edit] Plot
Eoin Colfer has said in an online interview that the book will have Artemis's mother sick and dying. She needs brain fluid from an extinct animal. Artemis himself had killed the last of that kind of animal a few years earlier. To get the LEP to let him time travel, Artemis makes Holly think that it's her fault that his mother is dying. When Artemis goes back in time, he sees a younger version of himself (when he was still rude and mean and cared only about gold). This time Artemis must face the most dangerous of all opponents, himself.[3]
