Colfer has fixed up that video blog we mentioned earlier, and well…. I almost wish he hadn’t! Colfer covered a lot in this video, but most important of all was the fact that Artemis Fowl Book 6 will possibly be the last book in the series. If not, it will be at least 3 years before a 7th book is written. Hard news to hear, eh? Thankfully though, he has said that he will be tying up all the loose ends in book 6, and will write a 7th book “if anybody wants me to continue it.”
Hehe – I imagine we could find somebody… 😉
Aside from that, Colfer goes on to:
- Say he’s very excited about the Graphic Novel coming this Fall.
- Show us the cover of his next book, Airman.
- Let us know that he will be at the Bath Festival of Children’s Literature.
- Give us some bad news about our Write to Eoin Colfer project. He says that he already has a backlog of around 500 fan letters. That can’t be good. xD . Oh well, we are still going to go ahead with it, and hope he notices us!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooo MUST HAVE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m DEFINATLEY up for more!!!!!!
Wahhh! We must have more books or else! 🙁 I hope he can make more.
NOOOOOOO! *crying deeply in the heart*
And he’s wondering about whether anybody will want him to continue the series? Am I the only one who thinks that this does not bode well for Artemis? (Or Holly / Mulch / Butler / Juliet / etc.)
… So many questions, so few answers. *tear*
Personally, (and no one can come for me because I have a dragon and Malen and Horatio (not CSI, mine cooler and more uasable when being attaacked) with me plus the almighty spork) but I think that I have to read the 6th book before I decide. I really enjoyed the series but, unfortuately, all good things must come to an end. He HAS to end with a bang. I just don’t want the book to end weakly and with a million and on questions. But I’m really happy that the graphic novel is finally coming out! =D My question: What is he going to be doing in those few years? Im getting a vibe that it has something to do with either a few sequals or the movie.
Hoping for the best *crossing fingers and toes, legs and arms* bones away>>>>>
Technically speaking, Harry Potter had to end and it would really be funny if Artemis ended with book seven… but I agree with flamingbones, I want to read the sixth book first.
Whew… no one mad yet. Thanks Hollymajorfan!
bones has left the building>>>>>
have you guys heard Colfer said that they are thinking to make the movie a CGI. NO, Definitely NOT!!!!!!!
Yeah, we had a debate a little while ago and everyone pretty much didn’t like the idea of a full CGI movie. Still, no one wants my head! yay!
bones>>>>>
If you read the comments on Eoin’s blog, in one comment he said he was thinking about writing an adult Arty book, though it won’t come till much later…I can’t remember on which entry he said that, but it was one of the earlier ones.
But this I do know: whatever Eoin Colfer writes–be it Artemis, AIRMAN, or something new and original–I will read.
Ahmen! Also, MichaelM, Im having trouble registering for the form. A little help? The activation email is not coming… Advice?

Definatly not a cgi movie, that would be gross!!
I prefer real ppl, so flamingbones, you’re welcome!!
By that, i meant your welcome to your thanks!!
WHAT!!!!!!????????!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It CAN’T BE The Last BOOK!!!!!!!!! He Has TO WRITE ANOTHER ONE!!!!
I think that the movie should be a mixture of CGI and real people and places and stuff, like Pirates of the Caribbean. That way it would be a gaurenteed Awesome movie.
i totally agree with u there fowl-freak/
Why? Why? Why? He can’t stop writing after the 6th book!!!!!! I think that we can all agree in saying that Eoin Colfer is a really superb author. He was one of the only ones that ever inspired me! Plz plz don’t stop Eoin Colfer!! You can’t quit after the 6th book!!
Well said Artemis i think that he should write another 2. Come on Eoin Colfer we need more! I hope enough people say that he should write another and to all who oppose me will be doomed {to a life long sentence of misery}!!!
there has to be another book he just left me hanging with the 6th!i need another book they are like soooooooooooooo good
I just finished the sixth book and its GREAT! He has to make another one. I agree that a movie definately would never live up to the book. Theres so much more to write about too!!! I wonder what’ll happen with Opal? The 7th one’s gonna be awesome!!!!!!!!
MAAAN… i wanna get the 6th book so bad but my parents wont let me.. -____-“
NO! theres no option he MUST make another book! And i can think of a ton of good scenarios where holly and artemis could be togeather!! Dont make them hate each other again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
