Alex Rider: Ark Angel by Anthony Horowitz

*****
This book is the sixth book of the Alex Rider series. It is called Ark Angel. The series is all about a 14 year old boy named Alex. He is a super spy who saves the world from danger. His parents died from a plane crash and his uncle died too so he lives with his housekeeper named Jack Starbright. In the sixth book, Alex was in the hospital because he got shot by a sniper( who works for Scorpia, a group of terrorists and Alex's number one enemy) between the shoulder and the ribcage and he had to stay there for a week . But then at midnight, a group of gangsters called Force Three come in the hospital and kidnap a Russian boy named Paul Drevin( who was next door of Alex's room and the son of a billionaire, Nikolei Drevin). Unfortunately, they got Alex instead because he switched the room numbers around. Alex fought them back with medical equipment like the medicine ball and a defibrillator( those electric pads in the movies)he knocked out all of them except the driver so Alex was knocked out. After that, he was lead to the leader of the gang( who had tattoos all over his face). Somehow, Alex was in a middle of a war between Paul's father and the gang but they were teaming up because Force Three tried to kidnap Paul because his father didn't like him as a son and Nikolei is trying to bomb Ark Angel, a space hotel and his latest creation yet. My favorite part was when Alex fought the gangsters with the hospital equipment.I like this book because it has a lot of action and suspense. I like to recommend it to those people who like books with action and super spies because this is the perfect book.

The Alex Ryder series is a very, very popular one Rgee. Your writing seems to indicate you liked it, but there is no *** rating. Also there is far, far too much written. A general overview, and then a little more detailed best part. Keep it to this.
