Author’s Note: In the Anthony Horowitz book, Point Blank, there are battles of good versus evil, and all of it is pulled together so well, it seems real.
“The flames were tearing through the building. Fed by a variety of chemicals, they burst through the floor, melting the asphalt. In the far distance, the scream of fire engines penetrated the sun filled air. Alex pulled with all his strength, trying to bring the gun down.”(214) In the Anthony Horowitz book, Point Blank, which follows the Alex Rider series, the fictitious battle of good versus evil displays what happens in real life.
In the Alex Rider series, Alex is constantly fighting evil, he knows that his life will always be in danger, but he realized that fact after his first mission, Stormbreaker. Mission Stormbreaker was a treacherous mission and he will never get rid of the memory that he was almost knifed to death by Mr. Grinn. Mr. Grinn was evil but Alex didn’t quite know that until that very day.
Anthony Horowitz is a very talented writer with a true gift. He makes everything in his books sound real. Just like in the Stormbreaker book, he explained the smell the look and the feel and I felt like I was in the story. Anthony soon wrote a new book and it has the descriptions of Mr. Baxter. Mr. Baxter was killed by a man named Dr. Grief. Dr. Grief runs a finishing school… well what looks like a finishing school.
Through and through, the Alex Rider book, Point Blank, Alex is a young spy that is looked upon by MI6 and is taking on secret missions that are dangers to himself and the others around him. Overall, Alex Rider is the best series I have ever read and I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who loves action and adventure.
