Scorpia Rising

My rating *****

This book is the last and final one of the Alex Rider series. It is scary yet not to scary. Alex is absolutely sure that his spy days are over and that MI6 are finally leaving him alone and that is partly true. Unfortunately Alex has a tendancy to run into trouble and MI6 have nothing to do with it for now anyway. Alex is chased and shot at. This backfires on the enemy and hits them face on. MI6 have no evidence and they are wondering why clues came so quickly to them. Alex is sent half way across the world. Alex discovers weird and wonderful secrets as well as some secrets you don't need to know right now. This story might seem quite short but trust me there is so much action that you will not be bored at any stage in this book. One of the main characters in this book is Jack Starbright and she is Alex's legal gaurdian [since his uncle died]. She is one of the only people he can trust and that knows he is a spy outside of the MI6 walls. She is very important to Alex and he loves her as one of his family. She has beautiful long blonde hair and brown eyes. She is not much of a cook but still manages authentic and deicious food for Alex when he is around...Jack is the only person Alex really feels comfortable discussing his spy life with. In the outside world. In this book I liked the part where Alex kicked some butt. Ididn't like what happened to Jack Starbright. I highly recommend this book if you liked the first eight.
