With all the hallmarks that made the New York Times best-selling
Artemis Fowl series so popular, this hilarious spinoff adventure stars
Artemis' younger brothers, along with a nefarious nobleman, a shadowy
nun, and a fairy intern, and a maverick troll.
One week after their eleventh birthday, the Fowl twins--scientist
Myles, and Beckett, the force of nature--are left in the care of house
security (NANNI) for a single night. In that time they befriend a troll
who has clawed his way through the earth's crust to the surface.
Unfortunately for the troll, he is being chased by a nefarious nobleman
and an interrogating nun, who both need the magical creature for their
own gain, as well as a fairy-in-training who has been assigned to
protect him.
The boys and their new troll best friend escape and go on the run. Along
the way they get shot at, kidnapped, buried, arrested, threatened,
killed (temporarily), and discover that the strongest bond in the world
is not the one forged by covalent electrons in adjacent atoms, but the
one that exists between a pair of twins.
And don't miss the movie, Artemis Fowl, now streaming on Disney+!
