Stormbreaker

 
My rating *****

I really loved this book because it is so nerve wrecking and yet so obvious that everything will be all right. The main character is Alex Rider and he is a normal teenage boy, or so he thinks. When his Uncle dies he is left with his house sitter Jack Starbright and he is told his dad was a international spy and so was his uncle. Alex was pulled head first into the MI6 spy world and he was so useful to MI6. In this book he was sent to spy on Herod Sayle a rich man with a bad temper towards humans. Alex had so many encounters with a huge deadly jellyfish (a single tough and you're dead type of jellyfish) as well as guns and qaud bikes. Alex is very brave and he is very encouraging. He is equipped with gadgets from Smithers (Smithers also works for MI6). The tools he gets are a game boy with a tracking system and multiple uses as well as zit cream which really can blow a hole in anything (this tool is extremely useful in the jellyfish tank). He is also given some little explosives. I highly recommend this book if you like scary and nerve wrecking books. This is the first book in a series of nine books. This is the best series I have ever read and I have read a lot of books.
