The Fowl Twins by Eoin Colfer
5.0
The Fowl Twins definitely lived up to my love of all things Artemis Fowl.
Eoin Colfer nailed his usual witty humor with the younger Fowl boys' story through fantastic word play, clever acronyms (i.e. ACRONYM), and the devastatingly hilarious insults from and to a couple of geniuses.
As with the Artemis Fowl series, Colfer shows mastery of third person omniscient narration. The characters are so distinct and the narration transitions are so intentional that I never feel lost in the stories. Colfer gives you so much of who his characters are simply through his narration style without spoiling the plot. This same narration style turned Artemis, Holly, Butler, Mulch, and all the other original players into friends. I was pleased to find the same result with the Fowl twins and their companions.
I loved the most recent Fowl misadventures and I'm excited to see what's next for Myles, Beckett, Whistle Blower, and Lazuli.
Oh, I can't forget to mention my love for the references to The Supernatualist, another Colfer favorite."
