Alex Rider is such a page-turner series written by Anthony Horowitz!! You’ll feel like your running along with him every step of the way!! Alex Rider is definitely a relatable character too. Ok here’s a small synopsis of the series. Alex Rider is a 14 year old ordinary English schoolboy until....his uncle dies mysteriously in a car crash. He knows somethings not as it seems.... but then he gets recruited for the MI6 (British Military Intelligence) and finds out his uncle was a spy too! And Alex, may just be there secret weapon! All of a sudden he gets thrown into MANY dangerous, extreme, crazy, daredevil mission. And failure either means-LIFE. or DEATH. I definitely recommend this series too!! It’s a perfect action packed, plot twister series for teens! There is also a new Alex Rider show on Prime Video for free too! Which is based off of the 2nd book and is TV-14+. This series is a great one to lure you into many hours of fun and reading! This series should be for 5th grade and up/11+ because it does a lot of action, violence, some blood and things younger people might not understand. Alex Rider Saving the world one mission at a time Action, adrenaline, adventure Read them now!
