I am a fan of Alex Rider. I am sad there's only 1 more book after this...
I ALMOST got through this one without tearing up. Not quite though, because Horowitz is a life-ruiner :P. Anyway, this makes me wonder where he's going to go now that we've got another book out in June.
Review for Scorpia Rising by Anthony Horowitz.Spoiler ALERTMonth/Year read- January, 2013Rating, out of 5- 5 stars upon 5 starsIn my opinion, this book is one of the very few who actually make way to the soft spot in my heart which is reserved for special books alone. Scorpia Rising was, I must say not predictable. No, not at all. I know most people say so, and I am sorry, but that is not true. If there are any people out there who were able to predict the heart wrenching moments of this book,
Man. This year is killing me. Every month, it seems, another one of my favorite series comes to an end. There was Mockingjay and Last Sacrifice last year, then this year Wicked Lovely's last book Darkest Mercy, A Prince Among Frogs (The Frog Princess), The Legacy (The Declaration), etc. Now the Alex Rider series is over. Am I sad? Definitely. Was this book just as good as the last 8? Yes!Alex has finally turned 15; he's growing up and moving on with his life. It's been months since he last saw
Scorpia Rising is the ninth book in the Alex Rider series written by Anthony Horowitz.

However, once again, he reluctantly partners with MI6 after an assassin targets him at his school. Flown to Cairo with the protection of gadget-making agent Mr Smithers and his longtime caretaker Jack, Alex unknowingly finds himself caught in a web of lies and traps. As his pattern of work
The dark and shocking conclusion to the number one bestselling Alex Rider series.As reviewed by an 11 yr old, "This book was brilliant. It has two parts, one about Scorpia, and the other about Alex. An old enemy returns to gain revenge on Alex, and as usual, theres a new enemy. This book is easily my favourite Alex Rider book. Smithers reveals a bog secret, and Alex loses a great friend. A perfect book for any teenager."
