Updated 20/04/2020: Some additional tie-in / activity books

With the imminent release of the movie (just over 4 months to go at the time of writing!), Disney have a tonne of goodies planned. And rightly so – we’ve been waiting long enough!

To celebrate the release of the movie there are several books scheduled to come out. We’ve explored them below, with links to pre-order!

Artemis Fowl: Guide to the World of Fairies This beautifully illustrated novel is a compendium of Artemis Fowl’s knowledge gleaned from The Book of the People and from his encounters with magical creatures and the LEP. Compiling notes from the sacred fairy tome and Artemis’s eventual plans to take down the LEP forces that stand in the way of his ultimate goal, Artemis Fowl’s Guide to the World of Fairies is a must-have for fans who are itching to dig deeper into the world of Artemis Fowl.

Artemis Fowl: Guide to the World of Fairies is a companion book to the main series, written by Andrew Donkin, who lovingly adapted and crafted the Artemis Fowl books into graphic novels.

We have heard on the ol’ rumour mill that there may be some interesting new content in here – so definitely worth keeping an eye out for this!

The Art and Making of Artemis Fowl Dive into the magical world originally created by Eoin Colfer in the beloved book series. From page to screen, travel behind the scenes to discover the myriad layers of movie-making. Casting, set design and construction, costuming, hair and makeup design, and high-tech gadgetry are all explored as the filmmakers bring Fowl Manor and Haven City to life.

We’ve seen some leaked pages from this one, and it’s full to the brim of behind the scenes photos, action-shots from the movie and more. If you’re into movie collectibles, or want to get a glimpse of the movie prior to it coming out, then again – this is one for you!

Artemis Fowl Movie Tie-in Edition Twelve-year-old criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl has discovered a world below ground of armed and dangerous–and extremely high-tech–fairies. He kidnaps one of them, Holly Short, and holds her for ransom in an effort to restore his family’s fortune. But he may have underestimated the fairies’ powers. Is he about to trigger a cross-species war?

Looks like this is a standard copy of the original Artemis Fowl novel, complete with a movie tie-in jacket and containing photos from the movie! A must-have for any collector.

Artemis Fowl: How to Be a LEPrecon There’s no team better suited to giving Artemis Fowl fans a fairy-level look at the LEP and the world beyond than Foaly, Commander Root, and Holly. With inside access granted by the LEP’s finest, readers will get unprecedented insight into the inner-workings of the LEP, the enchanting subterranean world of fairies, and the fairy perspectives on the world above.

This one has quite a chunky title – Artemis Fowl: How to Be a LEPrecon: Your Guide to the Gear, Gadgets, and Goings-on of the World’s Most Elite Fairy Force.

From what we know, it’s a movie tie-in book detailing, in-depth, all of the gadgetry, gear, weapons and tech of the fairy people. Judging by the look of the cover, it will have detailed schematics from the movie, and may include concept art and such from what we’ve heard on the aforementioned rumour mill.

Artemis Fowl: A Fowl Adventure Artemis Fowl is on a mission to rescue his father, who has been kidnapped. Artemis must get ahold of a fairy, steal its gold, and use the gold to pay his father’s ransom. The problem? He has no idea where to find the magical creatures. With the help of his friends and a reluctant captured fairy, Artemis will discover these magical creatures aren’t just real–they’re really powerful! Will he be able to get out of this foul situation and save his father?

A simple but effective addition to the array of Artemis Fowl tie-in books – this is a picture book following (what we think is) the plot of the movie. It includes a lot of shots from the movie that haven’t been officially marketed, and gives a lot of insight into the plot the movie will follow.
