Professional Review:

Artemis's mother has contracted a deadly disease--and the only cure lies in the brain fluid of African lemurs. Unfortunately, Artemis himself was responsible for making the lemurs extinct five years ago. Now he must enlist the aid of his fairy friends to travel back in time and save the lemur. Not only that, but he must face his deadliest foe yet: his younger self.

Summary: Fowl wishes
It's been two years since the last entry in the Artemis Fowl series, and although Eoin Colfer's Airman was enough to sustain me during that time I would prefer them to come once every year. But I do understand that authors need to try something new one in a while.

This entry has Artemis and Holly jump eight years into the past to find a cure for a rare disease that is about to be lost forever with an nearly-extinct species of lemur. But since Young Artemis was the one responsible for the animal's demise it's not going to be so easy for them to outwit and outmaneuver their rivals. Obviously the plan does not go smoothly and the mayhem escalates until the closing chapters.

Anyone who hasn't read the previous five books (and if not, why not?) won't have a clue what's going on here, and sound knowledge of the series is needed in order to fully keep up with the story. I did begin to notice a few plot holes here and there and a couple of bits that didn't make exact quantum physical sense, but that's why it's called 'The Time Paradox' after all. Colfer must have a wonderfully active imagination to keep a hold of all this in his mind before writing it down.

It sets up the story for another sequel but I would like to see Artemis and Holly move on as friends next time instead of them always falling in and out, I've had enough of that, and the lack of love between them cost this entry a star. Still, a solid 4/5 though.

(I got my copy personally signed by Colfer, and he informed me that Jim Sheridan is currently on board to direct the Artemis Fowl movie)

Summary: Thoroughly enjoy the Artemis Fowl audio books
I recommend these audio books. This particular one (Time Paradox) is read by a different narrator, than the others, but he has done a good job as well.

Summary: Another breath-taker!
I really loved this book. The plot was fast paced and complex. I'm a little relieved to see Artemis growing up and changing his ways.The only thing that bugged me was what happened to Minerva?? The book doesn't mention her ONCE! Maybe thats just to leave us wondering. This book picks up right after Artemis returns from his 3 year escapade in the "Limbo". When his mother becomes deathly ill with a fairy plague(she's always sick isn't she?), Artemis must journey back in time to save an extinct lemur,whose extinction his 10 year old self had a hand in... And meets someone who he hoped he would never meet again.....

Summary: AWESOME!

Summary: Where is Nathaniel Parker????
I have absolutely LOVED every book in the series. Reading them is a hoot but listening to them is even better. I tried to listen to this book but was extremely disappointed. The new narrator changed the voice of Butler so that he no longer sounds strong and powerful, it is almost like they have changed the character. The publisher should have used Nathaniel Parker or simply NOT put this drivel on the market. If I could I would ask for my money back!!!!!!!!!!!
