This book falls into the adventure genre. The main character is named Alex Rider a 14 year old boy who went to live with his uncle when his parents died in a plane crash. I don't want to spoil anything so I'll give you a very brief overview. Events happen and suddenly Alex finds himself caught up in the world of espionage, and he goes on his first mission. I absolutely loved this book. The plot keeps your attention and makes you want to keep reading until the very end. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars. I hope you like Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz as much as I did.
