Rating:  Summary: Point Blank Review: A fifth grade reader: Point blank is about a fourteen-year-old boy named Alex Rider trying to stop a mad man , Dr. Grief, who clones himself in the form of fourteen -year-old rich boys. My favorite part is when Alex uses a ironing board to slide down the mountain and to escape from being dissected. I liked Point Blank because once you started to read you couldn't stop. It's so action packed; it will keep you guessing. The moral of the story is that Alex kills Dr. Grief and stops his evil plan to rule the world. I bet you'll love it.
Rating:  Summary: Teenage James Bond Review: Teenage James Bond Bang! Bang! Bullets are flying everywhere. Tactical soldiers in white SWAT suits. There's action everywhere in this book! Do you like James Bond? Of course you do! So get this exiting teenage version of James Bond. Alex Rider's uncle just died. He needs to take his place in MI6. Alex has been doing well so far, but before he knows it, he's in an isolated, elite prep school. There's something very suspicious. There's something odd in this building... very odd. If I were to rank this book, it would be a 5 because of how much suspense this book gives. Point Blank also shows many exiting action scenes. There is no other action book like this one. The protagonist in Point Blank is Alex Rider. Alex is an imaginative, creative kid. He's just like any other kid except he works for the MI6 agency. His creativeness in pressure makes him unique. You'll see how he uses his gadgets and cool agent equipment throughout the book. One scene in Point Blank is when Alex was snowboarding down this steep, huge hill. Bad guys in snowmobiles were chasing him. The bad guys also had machine guns attached to their snowmobiles. Alex eventually escaped. Another scene from the action-packed book was when Alex Rider had no other choice but to sneak out of the school. The only way was through the window so he took his CD player that had a secret diamond coated blade and cut the bars on the window off. I conclude that this is a must-not-miss book! It's awesome. There's another book by Anthony Horowitz called Stormbreaker. I highly recommend this book to kids like you!

I liked this book because I can relate to the main charachter who is about my age. Alex also runs into diffrent peoblems he must get out of during the book. The action is intense. I found it very fun to read about how Alex will solve a problem or get into one. " He now new that he had to get up to the third floor." The intense spying action that makes this book so interesting keeps readers on the edge of their seats. I couldn't put the book down until I was through reading it, and even after I was finished, I wanted to read the book over an over again. I like books with lots of action. I enjoy reading a good book with lots of action. If I sit down and read a really good book such as Point Blank I will get up after I am done reading pumped up. Some of the books that are sold today are all action and have no depth of story. The action is jut a vehicle to keep the story going. Unlike some of these books that are read by our ypung people today, Point Blank has a cohesive plot, and when the action kicks in, it is perfectly placed and well written. "Alex yelled as he swooped down the mountainside, barely able to control the sheet of metal under his feet." Such action scenes a this are place throughout the book Point Blank. My favorite part of the book was when Alex was tries to escape from the guards that the school's director, Dr. Hugo Grief, had placed around the school, supposudly for the safety of the students attending the school. When Alex find out about Dr. Grief's despicable plan, Alex unwitingly reveals himself. Dr. Grief captures him and promises Alex that he will die a painful death, and the plan will still be successful. Alex uses one of his hi-tech spy gadget to escape from the prison cell he is locked in and makes a snwboard out an ironing board. He then starts to snowboard down the mountain but is then followed by guards with machine guns and snowmobiles. akex fears to be killed. He barely manages to evade his pursuers, but he has one more milestone to pass before he is safe from Grief.

Rating:  Summary: Point Blank Review: Alex races down the steep rocky mountain on a snowboard that he had made but snowmobiles trail right behind him. He hears gunfire. The drivers had machine guns and are firing at him. Bullets zip past his face. He tries to focus on what he needs to do but just then he flies into the cold snowy air and his mind goes blank... POINT BLANK is the spine tingling sequel to Storm Breaker but this time its much more serious. In the beginning of this life risking adventure Alex gets a call from MI6 to come over to their office and have a talk about some classified information. Once he got there he sat down and they told him that he was going on another mission. At first Alex thought that Gref was joking but Alex could see in his eyes that he wasn't at all.
