Review: shame that all these books are not available on Kindle yet. The good thing about reading is that you can tap into your own visuals, so that graphical interpretations of the writers descriptions are capped to your own. Exciting to read for all ages from 13 upwards. Horowitz is consistent with his story line and gives good descriptions of events, without being too graphic. The content is topical and up-to-date with modern life and the main character gets to use amazing gadgets to help him reach success. The main character does get injured but always manages to survive.

Review: This is the fourth book in the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz, after Storm Breaker, Point Blanc and Skeleton Key. I have read all the previous three books and thoroughly enjoyed them. They are implausible, ridiculous and hugely exciting to read. They really are the reinvention of James Bond for the modern teenager, with all the boring bits taken out. The action, as in all the books, is fast and furious and there is never a dull moment, which is good for children with short attention spans and an endless need for car chases and fight scenes. In this book, Alex comes up against a scary mad man as an adversary, and bumps into his old enemy Yassen Gregorivich, whose mysterious behaviour throws Alex into a deeper mystery than the one he started to solve initially. There are a few wonderful plot twists in this story which make you desperate to read on. I am looking forward to reading book Five
