Stormbreaker Book Report

In P4 we have been reading Stormbreaker this term by Anthony Horowitz the book was full of tension and adrenaline and is an amazing and heart pumping story of Alex rider.
Characters
In the book Stormbreaker there were lots of interesting and unique characters including Herod Sayle, Alex Rider, Nadia Vole and Mr Grin also lots of other quirky personalities. But there is one new character her name is Sabrina and she goes to the same school as Alex but she only appears in the beginning of the movie and the end.
Plots
In the movie the plot varied from the book a bit because at the start of the book it started with a knock at the door and in the movie it started with a scene were Ian rider was fleeing from some bad guys that Mr sayle sent when he was killed by yassen gregonavich. Also in the book he didn’t threaten to drop the canister of the virus.
Highlights for me
 My highlights from the movie was when Jaq and Nadia vole had that big fight and trashed the house also I liked the part when Alex used the harpoon gun and got into the helicopter and shoot Mr grin with the ink fountain pen and the part when he used the zit cream to melt the metal joinery in the jelly fish tank.
My preference
For me the book was better than the movie because the text was more exciting and adventurous because in the movie they couldn’t add in all the interesting little details.
All in all I liked the stormbreaker story very much it was an amazing heart pumping and exhilarating adventure and I would recommend it to lots of people.

Stormbreaker review

In P4 we have been reading Stormbreaker this term by Anthony Horowitz the book was full of tension and adrenaline and is an amazing and heart pumping piece of literature.

When a fourteen year old boy Alex rider hears of his uncle and only family member’s death he is in intrigued to find out more and he is taken on an exhilarating adventure as he followed in the footsteps of his late uncle as a spy. After grueling training he is assigned a mission to find out what is going on in the walls of sayle 
enterprises.

The part that got my heart thumping was when he was running for the cargo plane and was attacked by the guards so he used his yo yo to sling it up on the moving plane and got into cargo compartment.


I would recommend this book to anyone who like thrill seeking adrenaline pumping action.
