Point Blanc
Anthony Horowitz
Book #2 ~ Alex Rider
3.5 ✨

Synopsis ~ MI6 assigns Alex Rider, 14, undercover at an elite prep school for teen rebels after two fathers are assassinated. Principal Dr Grief and vicious cigar-smoking Mrs Stellenbosch are the only teachers. All the students act studious, perfect - and identical. When Alex finds the plot, the villains find him, and the mountain peak has only a black ski run escape.

Thoughts ~ A great sequel to Stormbreaker. Packed full with action and adventure. Great character development as Alex starts to rely on himself as he learns more about being a spy!

I loved this book! The ending was a bit sad but Anthony pulled in a twist. Following Stormbreaker (the first of the Alex Rider books) Alex is sent to the French Alps where he will have to find out about the mysterious Point Blanc Academy, while there Alex discovers a secret but can he get back to MI6 in time? Lots of action, adrenaline and of course adventure, this is a short Alex Rider novel compared to others but don’t put you off. I highly recommend this book.


This book will soon be an eight part TV series starring Otto Farrent and will be completly different than the movie Stormbreaker, it will tie in with things from the first book but will many focus on this novel, there is however no release date currently and I recommended watching the cast on comic con on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apLfrIcnXm4&t=3s
