Really Good book but wouldnt read again. lots of action but some action could have been more intense. Easy to follow if you want a book similar to this book i found the 39 clues series pretty similar. Both books really hard to put down.

Alex Rider thought his Uncle and guardian was a banker who traveled a lot. Little did he know that after his Uncle is killed he learns that he was really an MI6 spy. After finding out the truth Alex is recruited by MI6 to complete his Uncle's final mission. Alex suddenly finds himself caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, with no way out. Although I technically wouldn't classify this book as Young Adult fiction I thought I would review it anyways. My brother is 13 and going into grade 8 where they have to start writing book reports and what not. Knowing that my brother is a jocky little boy I knew the likelihood of him completing one of these successfully would be slim. So... I went on a hunt for a book that I thought he might enjoy. Little did I know that after reading this book on a whim I would enjoy quite a bit too. The novel is fool of twists and suspense not to mention cool spy gadgets. There was even a movie made based on it. Overall, I enjoyed this book and would especially recommend it to slightly younger readers. http://thenovelhovel.blogspot.com/

This book was amazing, its like a spy book. Its really really good to read, I have never read a book this fast.

It was awesome!!I read it and found it very interesting.I would highly recomend this for anyone that enjoys a high action story with a lot of spieing.Although the book had a fair share of violence,it is a book I could read a million times!!!

I love Alex Rider, he is my new hero! He is a smart kid, who kicks serious butt! He is funny, sarcastic and knows when he's being played and knows how to play the game. The Alex Rider series is a must have in every kid's (young and old) library! In this book Alex is sent to pick up where his uncle, an MI6 spy, left off on a secret mission to save the school children of Great Britain. This book sets up an incredible series that is full of action!

This was a very good book. It captures the reader instantly and sends them on an incredible journey. The characters come to life very well and the plot is good. You find yourself cheering for the good guy throughout the book. After I read it, I felt a strong connection between the characters and I couldn't wait to read the second book. If you liked this book, be sure to check out the rest of the stories. The suspense builds up with each novel. I particularly enjoyed Scorpia, the fifth one. It was the best book from this series without a doubt.

The book Stormbreaker is really Great! It's about a boy who gets to do secret spy training and uses really cool gadgets! He is trying to get revenge on the pursuers who killed his uncle. This book has lots of surprises! This is a book you don't want to miss reading!

A James Bond kind of story, Stormbreaker is a spy novel that packs a punch as it tells a story of deceit, danger and death. When I read the beginning of the book I felt that it was childish and a spot dull, but once I reached the middle of the book I was captivated with the wit and antics of the main character Alex Rider. This book is a definite read and also read all of the series of Alex Rider. Another thing to look out for is the movie coming out this summer.

So far, out of the three books I've read from the Alex Rider series, this one has been by far the most enjoyable. I found it hard to go to sleep at night, always wondering what's going to happen next! This novel seems to sum up what Alex is all about (following in his uncle's footsteps), as he always finds places his uncle has been first, The writing in this book is so well done you almost forget the (relatively) cheesy young James Bond set up. All in all, this is a series I'd like to see more of. Anthony Horowitz is a great writer, and all of his books reflect that perfectly.

Anthony Horowitz delivers a stunning blow with this novel. Readers will become breathless and find themselves breathing a sigh of relief as Alex Rider overcomes troubles and foes. But after relief comes more gut-clenching action. With amazing battles and unforgettable characters, STORMBREAKER is a must-read. With an incredibly exciting climax and great ending, this is one rollercoaster of a book you do not want to miss.
