- Anthony Horowitz; Alex Rider
Book 2 of the Alex Rider series. Maybe not as good as STORMBREAKER but still a cool book. The academy seems real, Alex Rider starts to become a character, It was written 10 years ago, Anthony Horowitz has improved since then, his latest books Necropolis and Fledgling Jason Steed are more real.

Rating:

- Great series, the best of the series.
Stormbreaker is the best Alex Rider book the film is awesome. I would like to know how he became a black belt at karate so quick, but its only fiction, I guess u just have 2 believe it.
