Auteur de science fiction jeunesse, Eoin Colfer (Artemis Fowl, Mission Polaire...) a terminé le sixième tome And Another Thing..., de la série du Routard Galactique de Douglas Adams.

Il est en interview ici

Voici un large extrait :
Amazon.com: Did you have any fragments or notes by Douglas Adams as a starting point for And Another Thing... ?
Colfer: Nope. Nothing. All rash Irishman.(...)

Amazon.com: What character came most naturally to you as a writer?
Colfer: I liked Zaphod. A media creature like the Galactic President fits in very nicely in our reality tv, fame obsessed society. It is almost as if modern media driven society developed to have Zaphod in it.

Amazon.com: Any challenges or difficulties?
Colfer: The story wrote itself nice and sweetly- but I was plagued by all sorts of doubts as soon as I finished it and re-entered the real world. This is not the sort of decision where you just say yes and are 100% confident that you have made the right life changing decision. It's not like will I accept the lottery cheque or not.

Amazon.com: How different in approach and style is this book compared to your previous books?
Colfer: My approach and style were pretty similar--except for I didn't have to construct characters, they were already there. I did work a lot faster on this one, the way a person might cram down a cream eclair that they really shouldn't be eating. A guilty pleasure. I have to say that I enjoyed writing this book more than I have anything else for a long time and it needed the least editing of anything I have done.
