Love the alex rider series. Curious if anyone out there has read the new kids sci fi book THE ICE GORILLA? Rumor has it its going to be a movie, but that might just be internet talk.
There were no girls at the Point Blank academy, and Sabrina isn't Alex's girlfriend they never even go on a date. Silly Anthony, you gotta put the context in the books first!
@xZEUSERS did u get a hard copy,i got all of the books at the same time so the rest were paperbacks but the newest one was a hardcover because the paperback version wasn't made yet
WHY hasn't hollywood jumped on this franchise. The books are practacally James Bond films in print form, the plot and the action is all there just adapt the script directly from the book and u will b fine. The only thing they might have 2 change would b the Alex's age cos theres no way u will believe hes 14 in all the films
@SJHFoto It needs to b done by Brit film makers who've read the book and just adapt it as is. I mean the OTT comedic fights weren't necesarry cos Alex Rider is a witty yet sobre book series as sobre as the James Bond FILMS (tho not necesarrily the books). Alex doesn't talk too much and, altho not emo, typically hard done by and abused by the secret service
@SJHFoto I guess but then again he is a novelist not a film maker. I mean if u read the books they play out with VERY cinematic scenes, scenes BEGGING to be seen as much as read, scenes which frankly make Alex Rider a total bad ass
@227060 I am not trying to push my beliefs on others, but as a Christian, I use no foul language, and ask for no one to with me. Since you were replying to my comment, I ask for that to be honoured
@227060 I would probably have to say Scorpia. But they're all very good. I like how there were twists and turns, and how we discover that his father was a good man
@227060 Haven't had a chance to look at that one yet. Actually, I listen to the audiobooks more than read the books. It's easier since I'm on the road a lot with my photography business
I dunno why everyone dislikes Crocodile Tears. Granted it was marketed as the biggest book yet. But u cannot top going into space or the climax to Scorpia or the sheer awsomeness of my fav book Eagle Strike. However, it was an Alex Rider book through and through, the only predictable thing in it was he lived Of course that was gonna happen u would b nuts 2 think otherwise. It was more than entertaining and if it lacks anything remember it was gonna b the last 1 till things changed
@madaboutmillie Yeah I liked it, I dunno why ppl take issue with it. I mean its not my fav but it met an adequate standard set by prev installments. My least fav book was prob Skeleton Key and its not bcos its bad just its the least good out of the existing 8. U know I really thought Scorpia was gonna bt he last book EVA, and was scared witless bcos my 15th B-day was coming up and my name is Alex so in my silly little mind I thought some sniper was gonna take me out
I have the book now. and it is like that. Its metallic though and that made it a little better, but its still kinda not good, but at the same time not bad haha. I don't like the red eyes. If you aren't from the US though then you get a different, better cover
@psd103 yea i have the book too and it has that metallic cover. i freaked when he said there were 2 more books coming cuz i thoguht there was only 1 since he has like 3 more days until he is 15 years old.
Just finished Skeleton Key! Probably one of the best books i've read. The end is sad, though.

is this even real? or did someone just find some footage of AH and steal it and add in some bad clips with it.
