I think it's a great book, but the violence is pretty extreme! I would love it even more if less people we shot and the violence was put to a limit. After all i'm only 11 but LOVE to read! I think the book is great, but parents might need to read it first for less advanced readers.

I love the book, its action packed and keeps you on your seat.

This book is jam packed full of action and exitement, is compltely age apropriate for nearly any age, and has just the right amount of anything

love this book the the rest of the series. full of action and mystery and a bit of humor

This book is amazing! I finished it in less than a day, because I was soooo interested/addicted to it! It has a little bit of comedy in it, and that is always a pleasant surprise! Alex isn't like other boys his age (Not only being a spy, but he isn't interested in girls.) Alex also isn't the kind of "I'm too cool for you," kind of spy, because he actually hates that he looks like a 14 year old james bond. Alex is resourceful, and he always risks his life for others. And of course, his gadgets are always priceless! Alex is an amazing role model for kids, and the book really is kind of educational, because within each book, there are science-ish stuff jammed in the scenes. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I can't wait! (P.S. If you do get the book, get the next few too because you will be exploding with excitement for the next book.)This is a great series! And I would recommend it to kids 9 and up.

Great book, just a bit violent. I was actually surprised how violent it was, but it turns out it wasn't the worst in the series. This book is the most mild in the whole series, nothing bad about really. If it was a videogame, it would be a different story, but it's a nice book.

Great book!

Alex rider is a really great book,with lots of action.It has a good story and kids older the age of 9 could handle the action,but it could be hard to read because it is a young adult.

Very disappointed that there is a lot of bad language in this book and that common sense didn't catch the bad language in it. Money wasted.
