This was such a cosy mystery! I loved the setting and the connection to the ‘original’ Holmes and Watson!

This was a lot of fun and I'm enjoying the "new" Watson and Holmes characters. I can't wait to pick up book 2.

A fast paced action story. It was a fun read but definitely directed towards a younger reading crowd.
Stormbreaker was a fast-paced adventure that reminded me of an adolescent version of the show 24. Since I enjoyed that show and Jack Bauer's character, I also liked this Alex Rider adventure. At first, I was a little hung up on the fact that Alex lived in London his whole life, but didn't use British terms (i.e., calling a truck a lorry, etc.). But I realized the audience is likely U.S. kids, so they wouldn't understand that jargon. I also realized I was over analyzing this book and didn't need to be doing that. Next up, the sequel!
This book was great! Not the first time I've read it, but when I was younger I didn't enjoy it as much. It was a brilliant story, thrilling but with no excessive amounts of violence and no bad language. I really loved it!
Fun, entertaining, and just a tiny but awful- but all the same a very good read.
