This book is a super fun and exciting introduction to Alex Rider's new double life as a secret agent. The fact that his uncle secretly trained him for life as a spy since a young age is so wild to me but also makes sense. It is more likely he was training him for protection and then it just so happened to be useful for spy work. I just say, Alex has a lot of dumb courage because I could NEVER.
I read the first four or so as a kid, and I decided I wanted to pick them back up and finish the entire series, so I look forward to that!

I hate that this was the first book I finished in 2021 (Review to come)

I remember reading this as a kid and loving it so much. The whole spy thing was so exciting to me back then. And as I'm now at least a decade older, I was prepared to not enjoy it as much as I did, but boy was I wrong. It's still all good fun. I did notice that everything's a little simplistic and easy, but it's middle grade so I know better than to expect intricate plotlines.

Really skillful, though formulaic and predictable, but in a satisfying way. I think it would be very appealing to a budding espionage fan. I've read enough of the genre to not find much of it surprising. But I'm not the target audience.
Can’t count how many times I’ve read this one, loved it as a kid. Reading it as an adult is still fun.
Twilight for boys! Are you a fan of gender clichés, bad jokes and cheap articulation? Then that's a book for you! Happy reading!
This is ridiculously far-fetched, but in an homage to Bond kind of way that’s pretty fun. I’d say PG13, no language except “he swore,” no romance, violence but nothing explicit.
Predictable but ig that's what you'd expect from a book written for pre teens
