Life
Eoin Colfer was born May 14, 1965 in Wexford, Ireland. Colfer had long dreamed of writing books, since his early childhood days of reading stories of Viking heroes. While Colfer had already published such books as Benny and Omar, 1998, Benny and Babe, 1999, and The Wish List, 2000, he attained worldwide notice in 2001, when his first Artemis Fowl book was published. He then became a New York Times best-selling author of books for children and teens, known for writing the Artemis Fowl Series, Half Moon Investigations, and The Supernaturalist, along with the Eoin Colfer’s The Legend of... books. In January of 2008, Colfer published a book titled "Airman," which was a New York Times bestseller.
