bethlovescake 's review for:

Scorpia by Anthony Horowitz
4.0
adventurous dark lighthearted mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

As always this was fast-paced with a bit more mystery than the others. 
This is another storyline where Alex decides to go solo, it feels a lot more dangerous when he does this. 
Even though we don't have Sabina anymore I enjoyed the scenes with Tom, especially the dynamic with his brother.
The whole concept of Scorpia is very interesting and judging by the name of one of the future books it'll be an organisation that is brought back. I like the hidden training school idea, it would definitely make a great series or film storyline, it feels so 007.
In this book we get a more in-depth into Alex's past with a few questions answered by the end. Throughout this book we're never 100% sure how things are going to play out in regards to Alex's loyalties.
