Eagle Strike (Mark DuBois)

Title: Eagle Strike
Author: Anthony Horowitz
Publisher:Walker books
Pages:340

This book was recommended to me by a man who worked at Barnes and Noble.

summary: This book is about a man named Alex Rider,who mission is to save the world. But there is a twist to it, the man that is trying to take over the world is also the man that he believes to have killed this uncle. This uncle was this only family, he didn't know his parents. So thought the book Alex has to try to save the world while trying to figure out this uncles death.

The audience for this book is teenagers,because its full of action and the main character is also a teen.

This writing style is very simple,as if a teenager was talking. It uses a lot of language that teenagers use.which helped the book become very popular with teens.

One passage is when alex goes up to the man who killed this uncle and goes" we are destined to do this forever" that sentence says that there is a lot more to come from them and there is also more books in the series. so i need to read on to find out what happens. one thing that really spoke to me is the way he never will give up on finding him and keeping the world safe.He knows its his job and he will stop at nothing to do it right.He also over comes a lot with not having any parents, it takes a lot not to go down a bad road after that but he just move forward and kept going.I wish to become that strong as a person some day.
