Media Reviews
Featuring high-speed chases, death-defying stunts and man-eating tigers, this brilliant adventure ends with a fabulous (and controversial!) cliffhanger: Up there with Artemis Fowl and Harry P. * The Independent *
If you were to ask a boy aged between 8 and 12 who his greatest fictional hero is, the answer would probably not be Harry Potter, but Alex Rider. * The Times *
Will last forever as one of the children's classics of our age. * The Times *
