Summary

Irish Twins Myles and Beckett， Artemis Fowl's younger brothers， return in their third and most bizarre adventure yet。


For almost two years， Lord Teddy Bleedham-Drye， the Duke of Scilly， has been plotting revenge against the Fowl Twins， who humiliated him in Book One。 Teddy plans to give them exactly what they deserve: permanent death。

He threatens Myles with his weaponized jet and Beckett and Specialist Lazuli succeed in disarming the aircraft and causing an accident that kills the duke。 But does it really？

Yet another wild ride， omg。 By the end of the book it really felt like it could be a conclusion。 But it was an outstanding and rather strange ride all the way through。

Love it。

This was good， the best in the series， I'm glad Colfer left the best for last。Although， some characters in Book 2 that I really wanted to see here didn't make it， dammit。I've read quite a number of books this year without reviewing them （like 3 or so）， but， this one！ This one！ 😂🤣I was absolutely LOLling every now and then。 I don't remember that happening for the first 2 books。It's quite slightly more brutal also。 I mean， one dude literally died watching his blood soak away from him into the stre This was good， the best in the series， I'm glad Colfer left the best for last。Although， some characters in Book 2 that I really wanted to see here didn't make it， dammit。I've read quite a number of books this year without reviewing them （like 3 or so）， but， this one！ This one！ 😂🤣I was absolutely LOLling every now and then。 I don't remember that happening for the first 2 books。It's quite slightly more brutal also。 I mean， one dude literally died watching his blood soak away from him into the streets。 Says so right there in the book。 Is this a kids book？？The blink-and-you-miss-it nods to Airman， WARP and Highfire were awesome。 。。。more

Lord Teddy's quest for revenge against the Fowl Twins knows no bounds。 As is evidenced by his latest plan involving a jet interrupting Myles' lecture in London， his own death， a booby trapped mortuary， and a cunning will。 It will take all Agent Lazuli's patience and and fairy abilities， all of Beckett's physical maneuverability， all of Myles' brain power， all of a toy troll's strength， a good dose of luck， some handy clones， help from one of Artemis' old frenemies， and perhaps a friendly ghost o Lord Teddy's quest for revenge against the Fowl Twins knows no bounds。 As is evidenced by his latest plan involving a jet interrupting Myles' lecture in London， his own death， a booby trapped mortuary， and a cunning will。 It will take all Agent Lazuli's patience and and fairy abilities， all of Beckett's physical maneuverability， all of Myles' brain power， all of a toy troll's strength， a good dose of luck， some handy clones， help from one of Artemis' old frenemies， and perhaps a friendly ghost or two。。。but even then things don't look so hot for the Regrettables this time。 Or maybe too hot。This was a wild and zany showdown between Lord Teddy and the Fowls as only Eoin Colfer's ineffable imagination could cook up。 I think I like Beckett better each book， and he definitely gets his moments to shine in this one。 Myles can unquestionably be insufferable at times， but he has some scenes in this one that show Beckett and Lazuli's lessons on being a touch more human just might be sinking in。 Lazuli has finally resolved herself to being saddled with the twins and figured out the best way to embrace it without going crazy。 She also gets some more of her past revealed in this one。 There are some encounters with ghosts in this adventure， but they are more humorous than haunting。 I especially enjoyed Daff。 I was most upset with Colfer for killing off someone。 Hmph。 At least they get to hang around somewhat。 （Yes， I know I'm being vague。 I need to vent but I'm avoiding spoilers too， so。。。） All in all a fun time spent with the Regrettables。 Notes on content: No language issues。 No sexual content （some rather young people get married。。。but， well， there's these circumstances that don't make it lovey dovey at all or too weird and not very permanent）。 There's some serious harm threatened at various points， a potential beheading talked about in great detail， seaweed goblins get unwound， one person dies in a plane crash， numerous past poisonings mentioned （and one happens in the present that results in a fatality）， and a lot of mindless clones get taken out。 Nothing is bloody， except Myles' field trip to the mortuary checking out a corpse that gets interrupted pretty quickly。 There are some fiery instances that result in possible injuries and clone deaths。 There's one violent passing of gas。 Lord Teddy likes smoking a pipe which Myles internally berates him for。 。。。more

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。

Caroline ，

3。5 starsAn enjoyable end to the series。 Light-hearted and silly at times but overall heartwarming

Helen ，

Another wildly imaginative entry in the Fowl series。 I love Beckett and his mini-troll， root for Lazuli having to babysit two entirely diverse beings， and really dislike Myles。 Sometimes it's a toss-up between him and Lord Teddy as to who is more annoying and supercilious。 Good fun。 Another wildly imaginative entry in the Fowl series。 I love Beckett and his mini-troll， root for Lazuli having to babysit two entirely diverse beings， and really dislike Myles。 Sometimes it's a toss-up between him and Lord Teddy as to who is more annoying and supercilious。 Good fun。 。。。more

I want to preface this by saying that I've loved the Artemis Fowl books since I was about 8， saw the covers， and aspired to read 'big kid' books。 When I saw I got approved for this I almost screamed from excitement！ However， like many other books the last couple years， this book heavily suffers from being a pandemic book。 I have noticed a trend in books written in the pandemic being less cohesive than the books authors have previously published: larger plot holes， characters not acting like them I want to preface this by saying that I've loved the Artemis Fowl books since I was about 8， saw the covers， and aspired to read 'big kid' books。 When I saw I got approved for this I almost screamed from excitement！ However， like many other books the last couple years， this book heavily suffers from being a pandemic book。 I have noticed a trend in books written in the pandemic being less cohesive than the books authors have previously published: larger plot holes， characters not acting like themselves， the conflict being confusing etc etc。Unfortunately， "The Fowl Twins Get What They Deserve" heavily suffers from this。 While there were many parts that were as funny or sassy as usual， the book didn't feel finished like the other ones did。 I was so excited about the character from the Artemis Fowl series that returns， but her return was a bit lack-luster。 It still held moments of joy and I was still devastated that it （I believe） is the last in the series， but it just doesn't compare with its predecessors。 。。。more

Maia Jane ，

a good book， just like the rest of the series。 i appreciate the accurate science （mostly！） and， again like the rest of the series， i enjoyed it。 a nice light read。

Mourning_elf ，

I think this adventure was full of magic。 In the beginning rather boring but then in the middle part it got really interesting。 I love the ending too。 Is it really the last adventure of the twin？

My sons and I have read all of the Artemis Fowl and Fowl Twins books together。 They are intelligent， funny， and so well written。 We have incorporated several of the sayings into our daily life because there are always awesome moments in the books。 I highly recommend for both kids and adults！

Blijven fijne tussendoortjes， en eigenlijk ook leuker dan de oorspronkelijke Artemis Fowl serie -- vooral door Becket natuurlijk。"Myles was able to do something he called compartmentalize， which meant storing unhelpful emotions in a mind box until he had time to deal with them， but Beckett was a creature who ran on emotions and could not shut them off at will。 In fact， he rarely put anything in boxes。" Blijven fijne tussendoortjes， en eigenlijk ook leuker dan de oorspronkelijke Artemis Fowl serie -- vooral door Becket natuurlijk。"Myles was able to do something he called compartmentalize， which meant storing unhelpful emotions in a mind box until he had time to deal with them， but Beckett was a creature who ran on emotions and could not shut them off at will。 In fact， he rarely put anything in boxes。" 。。。more

I liked it。Hm。 I don't remember if I ever liked Myles but I don't enjoy how he tries to dumb Artemis down。。。 Though that's sibling rivalry- though extreme lol - seems to help Myles try harder so it's not too bad。 I just love Artemis 🤣Beckett just has a weird thought process but that kid is actually smart from what I have gathered 🤣I hope to learn more about Lazuli in the next book though 🤔Good book。 I liked it。Hm。 I don't remember if I ever liked Myles but I don't enjoy how he tries to dumb Artemis down。。。 Though that's sibling rivalry- though extreme lol - seems to help Myles try harder so it's not too bad。 I just love Artemis 🤣Beckett just has a weird thought process but that kid is actually smart from what I have gathered 🤣I hope to learn more about Lazuli in the next book though 🤔Good book。 。。。more

Every book the author manages to up the ridiculous and I love it。Also deep deep cut， but who knew the very first scene in the Artemis Fowl book would be retcon'd to massive importance in the last scene of this book？ Every book the author manages to up the ridiculous and I love it。Also deep deep cut， but who knew the very first scene in the Artemis Fowl book would be retcon'd to massive importance in the last scene of this book？ 。。。more

Being a long-time fan of Colfer and his Fowl series， it was a no-brainer to see this was coming out and immediately know I had to read it。 Actually， the only reason I didn't read this book sooner was that the release of the book was a bit。。。off。 For some reason， the book was scheduled for release in October 2021， but all that became available was the audiobook。 Then， when the text versions released a month later， my library got the physical book but not the ebook。 Well， I finally decided I was t Being a long-time fan of Colfer and his Fowl series， it was a no-brainer to see this was coming out and immediately know I had to read it。 Actually， the only reason I didn't read this book sooner was that the release of the book was a bit。。。off。 For some reason， the book was scheduled for release in October 2021， but all that became available was the audiobook。 Then， when the text versions released a month later， my library got the physical book but not the ebook。 Well， I finally decided I was through with waiting， picked up the previous books for recollection's sake， and was ready to see just what Lord Teddy had in store for our favorite twins。Read my full review at The Wolf's DenOverall， this was a welcome addition to the Fowl legacy。 Filled to bursting with wacky hijinks， witty banter， magical spectacle， and dramatic schemes， with a sprinkling of logic， heartfelt moments， and laughter of both evil and joyous varieties， I have no misgivings recommending this to readers both young and young-at-heart。 After all， we all need a fun pick-me-up now and again， and there's plenty of wit and cleverness woven into these Fowl tales。 And though there's still a little confusion as to whether this series will continue forward， I know I'll definitely be returning to the world of the Fowls in the future—one way or another！ 。。。more

Buck wild with a lot of heart to it。 Overall， the Fowl Twins trilogy is not as fantastic as the original Artemis Fowl series， but it's still good reading。 I would recommend it to fans， but would not consider it essential。 This final book rounds off nicely， with some great callbacks。 That ending！ Buck wild with a lot of heart to it。 Overall， the Fowl Twins trilogy is not as fantastic as the original Artemis Fowl series， but it's still good reading。 I would recommend it to fans， but would not consider it essential。 This final book rounds off nicely， with some great callbacks。 That ending！ 。。。more
