‘Stormbreaker’ by Anthony Horowitz

If you love action and adventure you will love the book StormbreakerStormbreaker is a book written by author Anthony Horowitz.  The story is based in London, England.  It is about a 14-year-old boy called Alex Rider whose uncle, Ian Rider, has been killed.  Alex is sent of on adventure across the world.  He transforms from a schoolboy to a secret agent.  Armed with special gadgets and secret weapons, Alex has been sent out to stop the world-class very famous Stormbreaker and the multi millionaire Harold Sayle.  Alex soon finds out that he is caught up in trouble; the company and the military are after him.  Will Alex stop Harold Sayle and the famous Stormbreaker before time runs out?  And will Alex find out who had killed his uncle, Ian Rider.

I found this book very exciting to read because it is kind of based of the series “James Bond”.  I stayed up till about midnight reading this book.  I could not put it down.                 Jack, Year 9

——————————————

Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz. This book is an action adventure, but nothing prepares Alex for the news that the uncle he always thought he knew was really a spy for MI6 – Britain’s top-secret intelligence agency.

Alex is a fourteen year old boy who was living with his uncle who was suddenly killed. Alex ventures off and tries to find out what happened and who killed him.

I recommend this book to teens and young adults between the ages of 12 to 20 years old who are interested in adventure books and stories. This book is packed with thrilling stunts and mysteries. This book is truly a great read. I rate this 4 out of 10 stars because I did not enjoy it. Stephanie, year 9
