Publisher Description

They said his uncle Ian died in a car accident. Alex Rider knows that’s a lie, and the bullet holes in his uncle’s car confirm the truth. But nothing can prepare him for the news that the uncle he always thought he knew was really a spy for Britain’s top-secret intelligence agency. Enlisted to find his uncle’s killers and complete Ian’s final mission, Alex suddenly finds himself caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, with no way out. The original novel that started the worldwide phenomenon is now a major motion picture!

"My 11-year old son has been glued to this series for the last month and so I finally decided to see what all the hype was about...and it is lots of fun! The series is DEFINITELY written for a specific audience of pre-teen/teen boys but does a great job of being highly engaging, exciting, suspenseful, and knowing just what "buttons" to push to appeal to this hard to reach age group. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and was surprised given my somewhat low expectations going into it. It was a quick, fun, exciting read!"

    " Not much in the way of existential angst, but that's unsurprising given the tween target market. otherwise it's above standard junior spy fare. "

    " I liked the adventure and the action all through out the book.The end was interesting for me. It can confuse you so read the second one point blank to find out what happens next.I recommend this book to people that like action and has passions it will take a while to finish the series. "
