Editorial Reviews: When an investigation into a series of mysterious deaths leads agents to an elite prep school for rebellious kids, MI6 assigns Alex Rider to the case. Before he knows it, Alex is hanging out with the sons of the rich and powerful, and something feels wrong. These former juvenile delinquents have turned well-behaved, studious—and identical—overnight. It’s up to Alex to find out who is masterminding this nefarious plot, before they find him.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: An OK Book Comment: I think that this book could have been better. I don't think it was very exciting for some parts, but it got better at the end. It's not the best book in the series, but it's worth it to read it. Customer Rating: Summary: drake (tyler,texas) Comment: it was a very good book i had read it before but then i read agian and agian then i figured out that i loved it! Customer Rating: Summary: young James Bond Comment: To all you book readers on Amazon, the Alex Rider series is a thriller. In Point Blank Alex is packed off to the French Alps by MI6. Before I tell you about the problem, the reason Alex is there is that there have been two mysterious deaths with two mysterious kids. In this adventure Dr.Grief (a mad, mad scientist) makes 16 clones of himself to rule the world with. He owns the rich boys' Academy of Point Blanc and has imprisoned 16 different boys to replace them with his clones. Alex must free the boys or be dissected in biology class. My personal favorite part is the snowboard chase. Any reader will want to read until the book is finished because it is so filled with excitement and adventure. Customer Rating: Summary: Even better than Stormbreaker! Comment: This Alex Rider series gets better as it goes along. This book has everything in it from replicating humans to being drugged. You WILL Love this book! Customer Rating: Summary: Point Blank review Comment: Point Blank By Anthony Horowitz 274pp. Penguin Group (USA) $7.99 By Chris Petrovski I was inspired to read Point Blank because it was the second book in the Alex Rider series. Storm breaker, the first book, was so good that I had to read the second one. I'm glad I did. I am anxious to read the other books in the Alex Rider series as well. Alex Rider, a 14-year-old M16 agent, is assigned to a top secret mission in the Swiss Alps. Two mysterious deaths lead Alex to a boarding school for rich, rebellious boys. The boys are acting strange, and it's up to Alex to find out who, what, where, when, and why. I like Point Blank because it has plenty of action, spy gadgets, and things that go BOOM! I also like the fact that the main character is around my age. Anyone who likes James Bond, spies, and who is in middle school through high school would love this book. Girls would probably be the only ones who would dislike this book because of its intense action and lack of romance. This book is a must read for all people who enjoy this kind of thing.
