About the Author
The Artemis Fowl series is by Irish author Eoin Colfer, whose other work includes the sixth instalment of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, written after the death of author Douglas Adams.

Answer 2

To date, there are six Artemis Fowl books. These are:

Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code (2003)
Artemis Fowl: The Opal Deception (2005)

Artemis Fowl is written by Irish author Eoin Colfer. Artemis Fowl is the main character, and is a criminal mastermind. The books are written in a half-serious language which alternates with dark moments, and is a style that is favoured by childrens' authors such as J. K. Rowling and Roald Dahl. Other books that Eoin Colfer has written include 'The Wish List', The Supernaturalist and 'Half Moon Investigations'. His first book, 'Benny and Omar' was published in 1998, and was based on his experiences on working in Tunisia.
In 2004, a companion book to the Artemis Fowl series was released, and contains two short stories, extra information, activities, and interviews with the characters and the author.
