The Fowl Twins, Book Three: The Fowl Twins Get What They Deserve: Artemis Fowl: The Fowl Twins, Book 3

At the end of Bk 2, Lord Teddy was dead, at last.Or...was he?Myles and Beckett are a formidable pair. It’s a toss-up who is more brilliant, Artemis or Myles? Beckett is driven by instinct, with amazing physical capabilities. Beckett also has a magical gift – he can talk to anything living: human, animal, or even plant.Myles, sadly, has no magic.Or does he?Specialist Lazuli Heitz, their Pixel (fairy hybrid) friend, has finally shown magic. But it isn’t quite like any magic ever seen before. Is it from the mother who abandoned her?Unfortunately for the Fowl twins, even death won’t stop Lord Teddy from his twin aims: rule the world, and kill Myles Fowl.Vengeance is a dish best served cold, it is said. In this case, a large serving of seaweed is going to help ease the way!I truly hope this is not the last adventure of the Twins. I would love to see all three Fowl siblings have a story together!

Enjoyable!

This latest romp through the weird world of the Fowl twins was a complete joy to read. Colfer has done it again, creating a world that could only make sense to Beckett. Enjoy the harrowing adventures of Myles, Beckett, and Laz as they deal with the evil Teddy again.

This was my favorite Fowl Twins book of the three. The ending was weird though. Just when you think there couldn’t be anymore weird to add to the fairy world, there is was.This book felt like a coming of age and final chapter for them, and I’m honestly ok to see it end

Well written story, fun characters, lots of action!

What worked:The format is very similar to Artemis Fowl books, so fans of that series should readily enjoy this book too. The intelligence of Myles rivals his older brother, and he frequently informs readers that he’s actually the smartest Fowl. His twin brother Beckett is more physically gifted and likes to trust his instincts, so the pair make a formidable team. As in the Artemis Fowl books, the twins work with an officer from the LEP, but she’s off dealing with her own problems and has a less visible role with the Fowls. Her subplot may become more prominent in a future book.The author consistently puts the twins in impossible situations and lets them escape through ingenious/lucky events. Myles accepts an impossible challenge from ghosts in order to keep his head attached to his body. Most of the time, Myles is able to think through situations and come up with “logical” plans to resolve them. Beckett has an innate ability to quickly calculate angles and time in order to react at just the right moment. Together, they make an amusing pair and add funny banter with other characters.As the title implies, the major conflict centers on Lord Teddy’s diabolical plans to get revenge against Beckett and especially Myles. Myles admits that Teddy’s plans are truly devious and match what he might have devised himself. Lord Teddy shares needless antagonist banter that allows Myles time to figure out a solution. Adding humor to the scenes, Lord Teddy is aware he’s giving Teddy an opportunity to escape, and the characters make fun of this flawed tradition among bad guys. Their relationship might be compared to classic enemies in old cartoons, like Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd.What didn’t work as well:As mentioned above, LEP officer Lazuli spends much of the plot dealing with her separate story. She seems impossibly lost and near death in a totally different part of the world, so it’s challenging to keep her character connected with the twins. The assumption is that she’ll eventually reappear to save the day, but this thought drags on. Rest assured, the characters are reunited, but you’ll need to imagine the circumstances until you read the book.The final verdict:The final confrontation between archrivals. The Fowl twins are creative, resourceful, and humorous, and they create a wildly entertaining adventure. This book is the third in the series, but it can be read independently. Readers who have enjoyed Artemis Fowl will surely love The Fowl Twins Get What They Deserve too.

The images that this man can conjure with the fewest words. It’s like magic. And his sense of humor! Wonderful.

The Fowl Twins and LEP Specialist Lazuli Heitz are back in another fast paced, action-packed adventure. Lord Teddy Bleedham-Drye is back with a vengeance, and Myles Fowl is the target of his fury. Archenemies are hard to get rid of, especially when magic is involved. In an exciting turn, Myles accidently invents his own fairy-magic-superpower, and it causes a domino effect of disaster. Taking charge, Lazuli, with the help of Beckett, work to lead them out of peril. Lazuli, learns a bit more about her magic and Beckett’s instinctive physicality are spectacular as ever, saving all of their lives on multiple occasions. But their luck is running out, and Lord Teddy is not finished with them. Without their normal resources can they solve this mystery before they fall into a deadly trap?Eoin Colfer guarantees that there are plenty of surprises, including new characters and some old friends from the fairy world. Readers jump right into the action from page one, and culminates into an exciting end. Filled with the same humorous whit, scientific invention, and fascinating anecdotes as the previous two books. Yes, there is also plenty of toilet humor as well, and mentions of vomit. The science in this book may be a bit dubious, but it is a lot of fun. Myles and Beckett Fowl are their same ingenious selves throughout the book, but learn that they don’t always have the answers. Lazuli also has a bit of soul searching about her past, and the value of her own strength. Together they face their fears in order to ruin Lord Teddy’s evil plans. All ending in a hilarious and crazy mess. This is a great middle grade book filled with magic, intelligence, and unexpected adventure.

I enjoyed this book very much. As an adult I enjoy it’s humour and imagination. The stories are always interesting with lots of twists and turns. In a stressful world it’s nice to just kick back and enjoy a good read.

I have read all of Eion Colfer books and Artemis Fowl adventures are just brilliant in particular - I have difficulty putting the book down and have it on my phone, kindle and given paper back version to family and friends. It is good for all ages. Definitely good stocking filler too.

Lord Teddy Bleedham-Drye, der Erzfeind der Fowl-Zwillinge, ist zurück. Plötzlich durchbricht er mit seinem Flugzeug das Dach eines Konferenzsaals in London, in dem Myles Fowl gerade einen Vortrag beendet. Sofort versuchen sein Bruder Beckett und die Fee Lazuli Heitz das junge Genie zu retten. Dabei kommt Lord Teddy überraschend ums Leben. Myles traut der Sache nicht und glaubt, der Tod sei nur vorgetäuscht. Er überredet seine beiden Freunde in das Leichenschauhaus einzubrechen, um auf Nummer sicher zu gehen.Im geheimen Leichenschauhaus des britischen Geheimdienstes unter der Tower Bridge werden die Drei schon von einer Gruppe Goblins erwartet, die ihnen ordentlich zusetzen. Nur dank eines spontanen Ausbruchs von Feenmagie überleben die Freunde knapp.Kurz darauf erhalten Lazuli und Miles verlockende Angebote. Lazuli findet eine Spur zu ihrer verschwundenen Mutter, der sie unbedingt nachgehen will und Miles erhält die Chance, die wissenschaftlichen Aufzeichnungen von Lord Teddy zu studieren. Beide können der Versuchung nicht widerstehen und tappen so in tödliche Fallen.In The Fowl Twins Get What They Deserve erleben die Helden ihr bislang größtes und gefährlichstes Abenteuer, bei dem vor allem auch der Humor wieder nicht zu kurz kommt. Das Ende ist sehr emotional. Es fühlt sich ein wenig nach einem Abschlussband an. Ich bin gespannt, ob noch weitere Bücher folgen.

The lastest series

A good book
