SRP 2010 REVIEWS (3): #1) I think that this is another excellent book by Anthony Horowitz. He always does well when he writes about a teen spy. This time, he connected traitors, different approaches from the characters, and humor to make another book to hold all of the readers' attention. I just keep wondering how many times Alex Rider can get knocked out in one book. Also, it was strange how there was a traitor to one person's view, but a hero to someone elses. There was trickery, crosses, double crosses, and even one TRIPLE cross. It was full of suspense, and I can't wait until I get the next book to learn out what happens in the impossible ending. #2) One of the best books I have ever read. It's fast paced, and seems to never end. If you love reading, I highly reccomend this book. #3) This book is fantastic!!!! Here's a catching summary: Alex Rider could never have seen what was going to be. He finds out that his father was an assassin, working for an organization called Scorpia. Having no strength to fight that fact Scorpia wants him, he joins. Only this time, things are going to get a little out of control.
