Stormbreaker

Horowitz, Anthony. Stormbreaker. NY: Scholastic Inc. 2000. 192 pages. (Action / Adventure Series)

The main characters of the story are a boy named Alex and women from a spy agency M16 Mrs. Jones and Mr. Allen Blunt who has a computer business and is suspected of having more than just that but no one knows what it is. This story takes place in the M16 building and at Mr. Blunts computer business called Sayles Enterprises. The problem is that M16 suspects that Mr. Blunt wasn’t only making computers at his business. So what they do is send in a kid named Alex Rider who was the nephew of Ian Rider who had died on a mission, and Alex is sent in to complete it. One thing I didn’t like about this story was the character Mrs. Jones because in the story every time she had finished a mint in the story it would say that and she then ate another mint over and over throughout the story.
