Nothing prepares 14-year-old Alex Rider for the news that the uncle he thought he knew was really a spy for MI6 – Britain's top-secret intelligence agency.

Forcibly recruited into MI6 himself, and armed with top-secret, state-of-the-art gadgets, Alex is sent to finish his uncle’s final mission – a mission that involves a wealthy sinister businessman and his new tech creation: a super computer called Stormbreaker.

I enjoyed it a lot because I wanted to read on and see the methods he would use and the ways he thought of to escape. -- Stelios Gavrielides * Teen Titles *
I loved this book because it is suspenseful and serious with a splash of humour. It has such a variety of character personalities and it’s just as good as the other books in the Alex Rider series, which I’m really enjoying reading my way through. -- First News * First News *

A fabulous story that crackles with suspense and daring and shows that a bit of cheek will take you a very long way […] A great, pacy read. * Love Reading 4 Kids *
