As a teenager I reckon I would have loved this (and given the cover quote is from Anthony Horowitz I’d have been the target audience for it). As a 30-something adult who picked this up for free when a neighbour was getting rid of some belongings I had an enjoyable ride reading something nice and simple, and importantly quite fun.

This is a complex thriller that's got a slower pace than the cover and marketing gives you to believe. It's good, but not necessarily a natural progression for Alex Rider fans. Some disturbing scenes and real danger, 12+.

"Oh, come Itchingham - what on earth can be more important than an evening of light jazz with the Cornwall Academy's award-winning jazz band led by the very able Julia Nettles of Ten S?"
Simon Mayo why are u so unironically funny
this book was singlehandedly responsible for me getting a poster of the periodic table when I was 10 (no regrets) (it absolutely slaps 10 years later)
(altho the fact a large part of the plot is a fully grown adult beefing with his 12yo former student is so funny to me lmao)

This book was really good. I like the way that the author left some cliff-hangers at the end.
My favourite character was Itch Because he was extremely BRAVE.

I loved this idea of an 'element hunter' but I do expected this as a more fantasy focused book or even a sci fi one because of the marketing and ofcourse,.,., The cover. Other than that I love the plot of it, all the different consequences and problems that arises when you collect elements from the periodic table, Itch is a very unique and interesting character overall and would like to know more of his adventures of collecting elements, such a nich interest and hobby to have
