Oscars book review

STORMBREAKER

ANTHONY HOROWITZ


The book I read was terrific.
I think that I would read it
heaps more and read the rest of
the series.

This book is an action packed adventure which is the first book out of the Alex Rider Series out of eight Books. The reader is left wanting to read the next story Point Blank in the series to see what Alex gets up to again to save the good guys from the baddies.

The story is set in modern day England in London city. When the doorbell rings at three in the morning it is never good news. Alex is woken by the first chime of the doorbell. He looked out of his window and saw the police by his front door. The police tell him his uncle has been killed in a car accident because he did not have his seatbelt on.  Alex knows his uncle always wore his seatbelt so is suspicious from the start.

Alex was devastated, as he loved his Uncle very much.  He is determined to find out what really happened. Halfway through the book he discovers his beloved Uncle was actually a spy.

Anthony Horowitz does a really good job at making the reader feel part of Alex’s life and feel his hurt for his uncle when he is trying to find out the answer to his death...

I can relate to Alex because he is adventurous and I am too. Alex was in tall grass and he could not see anything. There were two quad bike with bad people on them and they were looking for him. Alex was in trouble. He manages to knock one guy off and jumps on his motorbike and rides off and he makes the other moterbiker drive off a cliff.

I love how Anthony Horowitz made the book come to life with how he writes it and how he made it not just for kids but for adults too.
