Point Blank - Anthony Horowitz





       This six weeks I decided to read Point Blank by Anthony Horowitz. The first publishing date was in 2001. This book is an action adventure book. This book is about the adventures of a spy named Alex Rider. Alex finds himself in another job from MI6 Secret Service headquarters. An investigation into a series of mysterious deaths, leads MI6 wanting to learn more, so they send Alex Rider to the case. The people that died were all multi-million and billionaires, that all had 14 year old sons. They sent their sons to the elite prep school for rebellious kids.

       The story is told in 3rd person. Alex. The intended audience is meant for adolescents. It is because it uses world choice that adolescents would know how to use. Point Blank is a  action and adventure book. This book is about a boy that is a spy and has to solve why important people are being killed. The author kept me interested in this book by having very interesting story lines with the characters. 

      This book did not effect me. It did not effect me because it didn't relate to what is going on in the real world. This book reminded me of the James Bond movies. And other action adventure movies.

        I enjoyed this book. There were a few things that I did not like about Point Blank. I did not like how the story started. I thought that Anthony Horowitz should have added a little more information onto the beginning because when I started reading it I was confused at what was happening. Although I did not care for the beginning of the book I would recommend this book to any person who likes action and adventurous book.
