They told him his uncle died in an accident. He wasn't wearing his seatbelt, they said. But when fourteen-year-old Alex finds his uncle's windshield riddled with bullet holes, he knows it was no accident. What he doesn't know yet is that his uncle was killed while on a top-secret mission. But he is about to, and once he does, there is no turning back. Finding himself in the middle of terrorists, Alex must outsmart the people who want him dead. The government has given him the technology, but only he can provide the courage. Should he fail, every child in England will be murdered in cold blood.

The first in a thrilling new series by British writer Anthony Horowitz, Stormbreaker will have pulses racing from start to finish.

This was a suspenseful, action-filled book. You flip the pages with your heart beating every second of it. I really liked this book because the author was funny and good at making the plot thicken at the same time. My favorite part is: "Alex opened his eyes. So he was still alive! That was a nice surprise." I laughed and put it on my quote board at school, because it CERTAINLY deserves to be there! This is a good book for kids 4-8 grades. -BKS reviews

I'm going to be a freshman next year and am wondering if I would find this interesting or is the reading level a little low? I like books such as Ranger's Apprentice, Lord of the Rings, and Lord of the Flies... Would I be interested in something like this?

I love the books, I would recommend them a lot, though, some earlier versions might have a curse word or two.

Alex Rider is an action packed book, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I didn't want to put the book down! Alex is the main character and is a spy for M16 in London. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

This book is very good, it has lots of detail and is an adventure
