Other titles in the Alex Rider Adventures series:Scorpiaby Anthony Horowitz
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Alex Rider, teen spy, has always been told he is the spitting image of the father he never knew. But when Alex learns that his father may have been an assassin for the most lethal and powerful terrorist organization in the world, Scorpia, his world shatters. Now Scorpia wants Alex on their side, and Alex no longer has the strength to fight them. That is, until he learns of Scorpia?s latest plot: an operation known only as "Invisible Sword" that will result in the death of thousands of people. Can Alex prevent the slaughter, or will Scorpia prove once and for all that the terror will not be topped? Review:"The fifth entry in the Alex Rider Adventure series by Anthony Horowitz, Scorpia follows 14-year-old Alex to Italy, after he learns that his father was an assassin for a criminal organization, and the teen gets swept up in a murderous scheme of his own." Publishers Weekly (Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.) Review:"[P]sychological mind gaming and fighting...will bring readers to the edge of their seats and keep them there until the final page. These titles are perfect for James Bond wannabes and reluctant readers." School Library Journal Review:"This stands alone, but it will leave teens clamoring for the rest of the series. One book, and they'll be hooked." Booklist Synopsis:Now in paperback--the latest entry of the "New York Times" bestselling series featuring teen spy Alex Rider. Alex learns that his father was an assassin for Scorpia, the most powerful terrorist organization going. Now Scorpia wants Alex on its side.
