Alex Rider
|
They said his unlce Ian died in a car accident. Alex Rider knows that's a lie, and the bullet holes in his uncle's car confirm the truth. But nothing can prepare him for the news that the unlce he always thought he knew was really a spy for Britain's top-secret intelligence agency. Enlisted to find his unlce's killers and complete Ian's final mission, Alex suddenly finds himself caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, with no way out.
This is one of my favorite books and it's been made into a movie: Alex Rider - Operation Stormbreaker. It's written by Anthony Horowitz and it's packed with thrilling, terrifying, non-stop action as Alex, several times, almost gets killed. The book Stormbreaker is the first in a series of 7: Stormbreaker, Point Blanc, Skeleton Key, Eagle Strike, Scorpia, Arc Angel, and the newest book - Snakehead. I've read all but the last and they're amazing! Follow Alex as he uncovers secret after secret, does things that most 14-year-old boys would never do, never dream of doing, and never dream of seeing things - that leave their mark on him forever.
Here's a sneak peek:
One car behind him. Two more ahead. The plane was now in the air, the back wheels lifting off. The guards taking aim. Everything at 70 miles an hour.
Alex let go of the steering wheel, grabbed the harpoon gun, and fired. The harpoon flashed through the air. The yo-yo attached to Alex's belt spun, trailing out 30 yards of specially designed advanced nylon cord. The pointed head of the harpoon buried itself in the underbelly of the plane. Alex felt himself almost being torn in half as he was yanked out of the jeep on the end of the cord. In seconds he was 40, 50 yards above the runaway, dangling under the plane...

No, I posted this so that people will want to read the book. That's not the story, just the heading-type-thing that they have in books. I posted this cuz it's one of my all time favorite books and maybe somebody out there is interested in action, danger, suspense... get me? |
