Product Description 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 them. Not only that, but he must face his deadliest foe yet...his younger self.

Another Great Book in the Artemis Series September 4, 2008 If you have read the previous Artemis books, this one holds up perfectly. I'd recommend this series to anyone at any age, and this book doesn't disappoint.
Artemis continues to excel! September 1, 2008 The latest book in the Artemis Fowl series continues to shine. The latest installment does an excellent job of bringing its reader into the Artemis Fowl world while stretching our imagination with its time paradox theme.
The time paradox. September 1, 2008 It's a reasonable book, but for those familiar with the series it will feel like it covers the same areas as previous books; ironic bearing in mind the title. I have to say the biggest let down is that it isn't narrated by Nathaniel Parker and is poorer because of this. If you've already got the rest of the books then it's worth getting, if not, get one of the others instead.
Dreadful audio rendition August 31, 2008 For the audio version:
UGH! What a misguided decision to change narrators. If Nathaniel Parker wasn't at liberty to do book #6, the publishers should have waited until he was.
I was willing to give this a chance and it started out all right. Artemis and his dad are Irish, accents were Irish. Then we get to Butler, and this narrator makes him a Cockney. The Butlers have been with the Fowls for centuries. They are not educated in London and returned to the family at some later date. They are Irish.
I couldn't listen to it past that point. I am so glad I didn't buy this installment (I would have without question if Nathaniel Parker had done the narration) but got it from the library.
Save your money and don't waste your time.
Another triumph! August 31, 2008 I purchased this for my grand-daughter who has always been a big fan of Artemis Fowl. Needless to say, she devoured the book in a day and is waiting anxiously for the next installment.
