Customer comments on this selection. Anthony Horowitz ; Alex RiderAnother great Alex Rider fast paced ride. Alex has grown on me, I now hear we are going to get another, I really hope they make a film of Eagle Strike, this was a great novel. Alex hanging from a hot air ballon with one arm while kicking an attacker would be great to watch. Better than James Bond. Best Book EverThis book is about an adventure with edge of your seat suspense. First Alex Rider starts out on vacation and then bam before you know it he's on a spy mission. He sneaks into a base on the side of a truck, saves the world, crashes Air Force One, plays in the new video game in a real life stuation, and is embarrassed in front of a huge crowd. My favorite part of the book was when he faked the guards out and pretended that he died. They sent a clean up crew to clean his dead body but when they got there, he was gone. I also like the part when he almost suffocated but found a way out of the wall, and out of the base. I would recommend this book to people who like action or suspense in their reading. One of the best books EVER!During his relaxing vacation with Sabina Pleasure, Alex Rider is once again pulled into the world of spying. Sir Damian Cray, the pop star saint, has an evil plot to kill millions of innocent people! And the only person in the world who can stop him? Why, Alex Rider of course! Best book so fari am reading the series and i finnished this book in two days. i feel ots the best one yet. very few times when ui was reading this book i got board and when it did it would instantly be filled with awsemness and suspense. u should get it  Eagle Strike Book ReviewEagle Strike is one of the best teen spy novels in a series of books written by Anthony Horowitz. It combines action across numerous European countries, celebrities who aren't what they seem, Air Force One, politics, and enough chase scenes to keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire book. This undoubtedly one of the best Alex Rider adventures yet. Alex is vacationing in France with Sabina, his new best friend, and her family, when the man he hates most, Russian contract killer Yassen Gragorovich, shows up to stir up trouble. Yassen, though, seems to be uninterested in Alex and doesn't even know he's in the area. However Alex, being a suspicious teenager, cannot help but get in Yassen's way. After going out one day after Yassen, Alex returns to find the house he's been staying in has been blown up, and Sabina's father is in intensive care. This leads to the discovery of a strange plot involving a famous singer, Damien Cray, who has developed the ultimate video game system called Gameslayer. This seems to be nothing more than a marketing move for Cray, but the more Alex Rider dives into this Gameslayer and spies on Damien Cray, the more sinister Cray's part in the events becomes. This leads to Alex travelling around Europe with his trusty guardian Jack in search of the truth and the bad guys, but the bad guys find him first. Alex is stuck in the middle of a plan with deadly consequences. The world's most powerful celebrity has gotten control of the world's most dangerous weapons, and his intentions are unthinkable. A brilliant climax, Eagle Strike will have you on edge of your seat, waiting to know how the book ends, while learning about an explosive secret regarding Alex's history. Scott Totten |
