Ark Angel-1

Intro: I’m really, really srry about changing books and not updating for a while!!! But I have to read on one specific author for quarter 3 and there were too many Eoin Colfer people. So I changed to Anthony Horowitz. Ark Angel is the last book published currently from the Alex Rider series. Before it there are 5books: Stormbreaker, Point Blanc, Skeleton Key, and Eagle Strike, and Scorpia.

 Background: The background story is that Alex Rider’s parents died in a plane accident. The parents were actually secret agents murdered on the plane.(Scorpia) So Alex lived with his uncle, Ian RIder until his uncle died in a mission to when Alex was 14. All Alex has left is Jack, his guardian and friend. Alex starts working for m16, a secret group that acts like bankers. He is always put in the missions unwillingly and Alex is the ultimate weapon since he is young. After ruining Scorpia, a evil orginization, plans, Scorpia sends a sniper and shoots right above Alex’s heart.

Summary: Alex is in the hospital and meets a boy in the room next to him. The day before he is realesed from the hospital, Alex goes for a walk at night. They see 3 men which Alex names Steel Watch, Combat Jacket, and Silver Tooth. Alex succeesfully knocks out all of these men and saves the boy in his next room who was going to get kidnapped by acting like he was the boy. Unfortunately, there was a 4th man and Alex is knocked out. When he wakes up, he is in a abandonned hospital and is brought to meet a man with a head tatooed like a globe. He is the head of Force Three which is a orginization that claims to be saving the world. They think its Alex and they are holding him for a million dollars of ransom since the orginal boy’s father was a billionare. Alex finally tells them that he is not the boy when they try to cut his finger off as proof they have the billionare’s son. Alex is put in the room and the apartment goes on fire. Using the things around him, Alex gets out and faints in the hands of a fire man. At the hospital, Alex is interviewed by M16 and the doctor wants Alex to rest for 2 weeks. Since Alex saved the billionare’s son and is friendly with the boy, he is invited to stay with the boy in luxury.

Feelings: The reason I love this series is that the writer always catches suspense and doesn’t realise it until the end. I really want to know what other problem is going to pop out when Alex goes to the house. I saw some foreshadowing that the billionare was not a good man.

 What I think will happen: I think the billionare could be another evil thing itself and Alex would have 2 problems to deal with. I think Alex might actually be lead into a trap by the billionare because maybe he might know that Alex works for M16.
