Review by: mizim (Miriam)
Dated: 22nd of January, 2015
Artemis Fowl and the Time Paradox is the sixth book in the Artemis Fowl series and is also the longest book in the series. In this book Artemis is thrown into worry when his mother falls ill, which Artemis accidentally makes worse when trying to fix it, and ends up turning to Holly Short in the hopes that she may be able to help. When they determine what is wrong with his mother the only cure relies upon a now extinct species which Artemis himself helped bring to extinction. They must now travel in time and deal with someone as smart and cunning as himself, his ten year old self!
There is a great deal of action in this book, especially in near the end of the book as an old foe resurfaces and sets a great deal in motion. It is fun to note that should the events in this book have not occurred... We wouldn't have the previous five books to read and enjoy. It was so much fun to watch sixteen year old Artemis and ten year old Artemis handle and deal with each other, how do you win when they know you exactly as well as you know yourself? Another great book in the series and I think this is my favorite one in the series.
