Product description
Night came quickly to Skeleton Key. The sun hovered briefly on the horizon, then dipped below. At once the clouds rolled in – first red, then mauve, silver, green and black as if all the colours in the world were being sucked into a vast melting pot. A single frigate bird soared over the mangroves, its own colours lost in the chaos behind it. The air hung close. Rain hung waiting. There was going to be a storm.
Sharks. Assassins. Nuclear bombs. Alex Rider’s in deep water. On an island paradise off the coast of Cuba, insane Russian General Sarov is hatching explosive plans to rewrite history – and teenage spy Alex Rider has the job of stopping him. Alone, equipped with just a handful of ingenious gadgets, Alex must outwit a crafty madman’s mind, as the seconds tick down towards the end of the world.

on 7 March 2014I love this book. I think its funny when General Sarov thought of Alex as his son and expected Alex to love him whereas Alex hated him and was trying to get away from him. The action was amazing.

on 3 March 2011What can i say. This book has and is everything. Thrilling story line. Mad and amazing characters Settings so realistic you have to remind yourself your not there Gadgets so original that you wonder if Mr Horowitz is in MI6! And a plot to destroy the world = an unputdownable book.

on 3 March 2011A little bit darker than the first two books, so maybe more suitable for a slightly older audience, but still a brilliant read

on 27 February 2011And the Alex Rider series just gets better and better! :O Amazing, gripping, moving, shocking and stunning, I like how there are bits that you are just thinking ‘AAARRRGGGHHH, I’ve GOT to read this or Alex will be left to die…’ or something like that. 5* book.
