It feels like the author has lost his love for Artemis. It seems like he is using these last few books not to please the Artemis fans but more to stand on a soap box about saving the environment, and to express just how repugnant he finds the average human being on this polluted earth. He throws in some token Mulch Diggums jokes but even those feel predictable and forced. Opal again? :-(

The Time Paradox Turtleback School Library Binding Edition Artemis Fowl Eoin Colfer 9780606105798 Books Reviews

This book is pretty good and won't likely dissapoint Artemis Fowl fans. It has the usual entertaining elements of the other stories in the series. But for fans of Nathanial Parker, who identified heavily with the characters in part created by his superb narrating abilities, it will be an adjustment. It's not that Enn Reitell is not a great story teller, he really did a servicable job. BUT, I never could get used to the incongruity of the new voices of Butler or Foley in particular. He did a great Mulch. So all in all, not our favorite in the series but well worth the read or listen. I hope Nathanial Parker returns for future Fowl books.
In Artemis Fowl The Time Paradox, Eoin Colfer continues the adventures started in the original Artemis Fowl. This time Artemis must return to the past to stop himself from destroying the last lemur that held the key to curing his mother.
When Artemis was 10, he sold this lemur to a group of extinctionists. Now the only thing that will cure his mother is in the brain of that lemur.
In an action packed volume, Eoin Colfer pumps up the intensity in the series. The plot moves at a perfect pace and if you understand paradox you can figure out that it sets up more than book six.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who has read and enjoyed the other titles in the series.
My 11-yo son and I both really enjoyed the Artemis Fowl series, but this book was a major letdown. Time travel is difficult to get right, and Colfer missed the mark. The character development in the book is lame, and the story has more holes than a piece of Swiss cheese.
My son didn't make it through the book, and I will certainly not read it a second time. Too bad, I really like Artemis, Holly, Foaly, Mulch and the Butlers, and was hoping to hang out with them for a few more books.
(SPOILERS)Another fast-paced Artemis book that was a lot of fun to read in a weekend. Like others who wrote in, I missed Butler and Minerva but didn't find her absence such a mystery at this point. They are, after all, both teenagers and should develop other relationships along what will hopefully be an on-again-off-again relationship throughout future storylines. Instead, I found the Holly & Artemis momentary romance to be endearing and humorous. I worry, though, about Artemis' developing character. Others commented on his not quite being his mastermind self and until the end of the book that is certainly true. I don't think any reader wants Artemis to be "nice". He walks a line that makes him interesting and dangerous and because his inner core really wants to do the right thing, it makes him likable despite himself. Some of that got lost in this edition. Overall, though, it's just another really entertaining and enjoyable sequel that makes me want to read what's next!
The Time Paradox starts off when Artemis returning home 3 years later. He now has 2 little brothers and he's growing up. This book is action packed the entire way, there's no rest at all in this book. It also seems to have the beginnings of a romance between Artemis and Holly. Artemis isn't the "bad guy" of the previous books. The plot of this book is Artemis must go back in time to save a Lemur and he has to face his younger self. It's very complicated at times and hard to follow. This book also is a bit on the disturbing side when it comes to the Extincionists. These guys are messed up. The budding romance between Holly and Artemis is a bit odd considering she's an adult and he's a teen. I'm curious how this will work out and be moraly right at the same time (although they are 2 different species....hmmm). An reintroduction of a old enemy is here too. The ending of this book leaves it open for another afterwards and frankly if this is the end, it's upsetting.

All in all, an excellent book in the Artemis Fowl series, ideal for kids and adults.
Those who have been faithfully following this series will know that this is book six of the adventures of the teenaged criminal mastermind, Artemis Fowl II.

Picking up at Fowl Manor, we learn that three years have passed while Artemis was otherwise occupied, and that he now has two brothers, twins named Beckett and Myles. This book goes in a different direction to the previous plot, making no mention of some of the characters introduced in The Lost Colony. There are references to certain events, but other than the main characters, most of the story is new material.

As the title implies, an older and more mature Artemis Fowl enlists the help of his friend Captain Holly Short, dwarf Mulch Diggums and the imp warlock No.1 to journey to the past to correct a mistake he made earlier in his eventful life. His mother has contracted a rare disease that can only be cured by an extract from the brain of an extinct lemur, and ironically, the extinction was hastened by young Fowl himself.

The time trip gets very complicated when Artemis matches wits with his younger self, and rescuing the lemur from Dr. Damon Kronski, leader of the Extinctionists cult, proves to be much easier planned than achieved. To make it more complicated, there's now a fledgling romantic situation in play, and the return of an enemy from the past who also wants possession of the lemur.

Artemis isn't as devious and diabolical as in earlier books, but to his credit, the kid is growing up and has other things on his mind. This book is action-packed with the usual gadgetry and humor, but as is the case with time paradoxes, it is sometimes hard to keep things straight. The plot also has several twists, obviously getting even twistier in the final chapters. The story ends with an obvious hint for another book.

And "What about the Kraken?" you may ask. Well, that part of the story is explosive, to say the least.
