Critics Review

I enjoyed it a lot because I wanted to read on and see the methods he would use and the ways he thought of to escape. – Stelios Gavrielides * Teen Titles *I loved this book because it is suspenseful and serious with a splash of humour. It has such a variety of character personalities and it’s just as good as the other books in the Alex Rider series, which I’m really enjoying reading my way through. – First News * First News *I loved this book because it is suspenseful and serious with a splash of humour. – First News * First News *A fabulous story that crackles with suspense and daring and shows that a bit of cheek will take you a very long way […] A great, pacy read. * Love Reading 4 Kids *Even though there are no illustrations, the brilliant descriptions really bring the story to life. When I read it I really feel into the scenes and I always want to know what will happen next. – Young Reviewer * The Guardian Online *Horowitz somehow manages to grab your attention in each and every way, whether it is suspense or a heartfelt moment. – Reader Review * Teen Titles *Packed with action, excitement and peril, the first book in this thrilling series will leave you keen to read the next instalment. * The Week *Finding books to engage boys in reading can be tricky, but I personally know many for whom the Alex Rider series (Stormbreaker being the first) was a total game-changer. * Top 50 Books Every Child Should Read, Good Housekeeping *
