I love the Artemis Fowl and Fowl Twins series. This is a great book to read with kids. My kids LOVE these, and they are I intelligent and entertaining enough for adults to enjoy too. I hope the next book comes out quickly because my kids are already begging for it!
This is the second installment of The Fowl Twins, and I felt like it lacked a bit of the magic the first one had. I really enjoy the character of Beckett and his friendship with Whistleblower and I wish there was a bit more of them and a bit less of Myles. Myles appears to have all of the most annoying traits that Artemis had, and I hope he comes back in future books. The plot didn't really keep my attention, I felt like every time I put the book down I had to read back and figure out what was going on again since it was all over the place. Overall it was good, just not my favorite of the Fowl novels.

Since Eoin Colfer remains to be one of my favorite authors (possibly my favorite male author, period), I will continue to seek out each and every one of his books. And since this is the latest entry in one of my favorite series, I had no choice but to grab it as soon as was feasible and hope it would be every bit as enjoyable as previous entries. But really, was there ever any doubt?

Overall, this is a fun, action-packed, faithful continuation to the Fowl literature legacy. That is to say, fans of the series will find more to love here. While the first book made sure to put us at ease by including familiar characters and general premise, this second entry has stated loud and clear that we will not be traversing familiar territory. Dynamics have changed, the extent of which have yet to be explored, and things are no doubt about to get messy. I, for one, am eager to return to the new Fowl Manor and see what else the twins have in store for the world.
