Alex Rider Point Blanc Graphic Novel

This was a most interesting, well-told and well-drawn story. It's only the second of the series I've seen (the other being STORMBREAKER, the original). Of course, I shouldn't have been surprised by the essentially unrealistic premise or the classic monologuing (sp.?) of the mad villain, but I was pleasantly surprised by the other twists and turns of the plot (which are, no pun intended, chilling in various ways). Alex nearly buys the farm more than once (one of the times being when he finds himself overmatched as a martial artist by the chief villainess), but it's good to have good friends around at such times."Most schoolboys dream of being a spy. Alex is a spy who dreams of being a schoolboy." Well said, Mr. Stuffy MI6 Director. :) And we find out by the end just how true that is - Alex comes to a turning point in his mind about his destiny, however long that state of mind lasts.

My son loves these. I love him reading. Generally though the series villainizes people from other countries and folks with less than traditional gender expression. I personally dislike that. But obviously I care more at the moment about my son reading. I am counting on his life and other sources to give him an analysis.

This is book 2 in the Alex Rider graphic novel series. My 11 year old loved book one. He read the entire book in one day. No electronics - just him and the book.Mr Horowitz:Please continue this series as graphic novels.

Alex Rider series are always my favorite. I'll buy anything that lined as Alex Rider anyway. Well, this book is kinda good. They represented and followed what in the book quite well, but not entirely.

MY GRANDSON HAS NOT READ IT YET. BUT WAS THRILLED WITH THE PURCHASE HE LOVES THESE BOOKS. THANKS TO THIS AUTHOR WHO WRITES THIS KIND OF BOOKS FOR YOUNG KIDS

I love this book before they made the graphic novel. And I love the graphic novel also! I can't wait until Eagle Strike comes out in graphic novel version!!!

What a great way to help reluctant readers!

I love this book. I am 10 years old and I thought this book was so cool with the gadgets,non-stop action, and suspense. You will never want to put this book down. I thought this book wasn't too violent and the plot is very easy to understand. I read all the Alex Rider books exept a few of them. This is the first book in the series(i think) and it doesnt matter where u start in the series becuase this book is so awesome!

Very easy to read, kids liked it and even friends at school who asked to borrow more of them

Super story

Bought for my non reading 9 year old for Christmas. It was devoured in less than a day and has been re read twice. Have ordered the next few as they seemed to have worked magic. They were easy to access, exciting, tense and well written. Would highly recommend.

Best book
