Eoin at the Hay Festival (Audio Interview)

Here’s a link from a couple of months ago when Eoin and some other author’s were interviewed at the Hay Festival.

 

Eoin Interview from the Guardian Podcast

Eoin’s Interview on the Disney Site

“The mere fact that author Eoin Colfer is on a national book tour called the Fairies, Fiends & Flatulence tour should tell you something. What exactly can be left up to you, but please take away from the name that he writes in the realm of the fantastic — with plenty of funny thrown in. Colfer, who lives in Ireland with his wife and two sons, recently released Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox, the sixth book in his best-selling series about a super-genius boy who happens to be a criminal mastermind. He’s announced that it will be his last Artemis Fowl adventure for a while, though he says he will return to the character. Fast-paced, action-packed, and often hilarious, the Artemis Fowl books are just part of Colfer’s extensive bibliography: The former school teacher has 16 books to his name, among them Half-Moon Investigations and Airman, two spectacular books for young boys (and, yes, girls so long as they like action and excitement)” .
