I read the whole series about a year ago and I really thing what you think!
i luved this wonderful adventure book
This book leads a pathway to new thinking, leaving the reader thirsting for more. The story line allows you to imagine more and is a very suspenseful novel urging reader to stay for more.
The book is exciting and is very easy to understand and hard to put down. The fast pace of story drew me on, and it used simple language so it is easier to read through the story. Stormbreaker is an action-packed adventure about a 14 years old spy named Alex. He is drawn into a world of secrets and spies, dangerous missions, and death. If I were the main character, I would be l very afraid to do the missions because the missions always in dangerous places with bad people and related to the death. I admire his courage and it reminds me that if I want to accomplish something, i need to have courage. Alex’s focus and determination to solve the problems to save the world is something that relates to me. For example, when I am doing an important project, I should have determination and be very focused on the project in order to complete it well. This tells me determination and focus is very important to everything. I recommend this book to people who are action-adventure fans.
Stormbreaker is a book about a 14 year old british boy named Alex Rider. His uncle, Ian Rider died at "a car crash" but Alex doesn't believe it. So Alex goes to investigate and finds out that there were bullet holes on the car. Eventually, he gets brought to the MI6 headquarters which was supposedly his uncle's bank. Alan Blunt, the leader of MI6 convinces him to go on a mission to investigate Herod Sayle. Alex says no then he threatens to ship his friend, Jack Starbright out of town. His life then get's plunged into a life of spy stuff and adventure. What I loved about this book was how it was so unpredictable and the way the author wrote it. It was like James Bond turned into a 14 year old and the story was just so realistic. Anthony Horowitz, the author was also able to add lot's of details and amazing great reasoning and a great storyline. I liked how he was able to make the criminal mastermind plan seem so possible.

At the age of 14 Alex Rider hears about his uncles death, and found it suspicious, he soon found out his uncle was a secret agent investigating about Stormbreaker. Alex’s quest for the truth introduced him to Alan Blunt, a spymaster. Alex was caught for seeking further information, and blackmailed into becoming the youngest spy. Alex then faced all kinds of challenges and manage to survive. I really like this book because it is really fascinating and interesting, Anthony Horowitz applied many details making the reader wants to read further more. Also it always gives you an unexpected surprise making you never bored reading it.
Stormbreaker is a scientific and adventure novel by Anthony Horowitz and is the most thrilling book I've read this semester. The character, Alex Rider, is a normal teen who lives with his uncle. But after his uncle's death, he founds out that his uncle is a secret agent and soon carries on his mission. Along the way, he faces different challenges and has to figure out how to save the world before the Stormbreaker computers "invade" Earth. I really like Alex because he is really brave, strong, intelligent, and is always up for a new challenge. One of my favorite scenes is when he is almost killed by Baron, but one of the workers help him escape. I was super nervous when I was reading that chapter and it was really a cliff-hanger that I didn't expect. This book is perfect for teens that like sci-fi but more realistic than fantasies, it's an amazing book!
This Book is amazing, in fact the whole series is! It is all about a teenage spy names Alex Rider who is always being forced into saving the world. I strongly recommend this book to all readers 10 or over who love a good action story! I literally could not put this book down!
