1: Great series, the best of the series.
Stormbreaker is the best Alex Rider book the film is awesome. I would like to know how he became a black belt at karate so quick, but its only fiction, I guess u just have 2 believe it.
|
2: Another great Alex Rider adventure
Its good but not as good as Stormbreaker, its slower and repeats itself a little from book one.
However that said its still a great book , plenty of action and drama.

3: Alex Rider
When i first read stormbreaker i read it in about half a day, i was addicted, i couldn't stop reading. When i finished i thought to myself that i probably wouldnt be gripped like that by a book in a long time to come. The next day, i bought Point Blanc and i found myself very mistaken. Point Blanc gripped me like a vice and i highly recommend it.
The book starts 2 weeks after Alex's first mission and to his surprise, M16 need him again, this time he is to go under cover to Point Blanc academy, an isolated bording school for rich rebel boys in the french Alps, to investigate two "accidental" deaths of rich men, both of whos son goes to Point Blanc academy. But can Alex figure out what's going on before it's too late?
Point Blanc is an excelent book that leaves you hanging and waiting for Alex's third adventure... it is a wonderful novel of action and suspense. Any reader waiting anxiously for the release of Vin Diesel's new movie, XXX, or the new James Bond film will definitely find a story in this book to meet the driving excitement in those properties.

4: Boy Spy
Point Blank is a great book by Anthony Horowitz. It's in a series with the main character being Alex Rider. I rate this book 5 stars, and I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes spy books. It's full of action and adventure! It reminds me of James Bond and Indiana Jones, because of all of the excitment and spying. Alex's is an MI6. MI6 in England is the same as the CIA in America. It's a super spy service. Alex is 14. He's gone through a great training program to follow his deceased uncle's career. The adventures he gets into covers spying, fighting, shooting, explosions and cloning. It also has a really great cliffhanger at the end. I think you'll find it a great book filled with suspense and action. I recommend reading Stormbreaker (Anthony Horowitz's first book) to understand how Alex Rider became involved in MI6, although I enjoyed Point Blank much more becasue there was more action.
