Eoin Colfer, best known for his YA novels featuring Artemis Fowl, has been tapped to write the sixth novel in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy, reports the Guardian. Colfer has big shoes to fill. Since the first Douglas Adams' HGttG story appeared as a radio play in 1978, the series has grown a cult following. "I feel more pressure to perform now than I ever have with my own books," said Colfer.
The as-yet-untitled sixth book will be published in October of 2009.--David E
