Ark Angel

Right now I am reading a book called Ark Angel, which is written by Anthony Horowitz. I am in the middle of his series and like the books a lot. This one again is with Alex Rider this time he has just recovered from a major injury. Scorpia, an assassin group, recently tries to shoot Alex, but somehow he survived and is put in the hospital. His room is right next to Paul Drevin, the son of a multi-billionaire. A group of terrorists called Force Three try to kidnap Paul, Alex thinks for money, but Alex can’t let that happen. He creates diversions and defeats four of the men but at the end is knocked out and taken prisoner. He is taken to a building where they interrogate him and he tells them he isn’t Paul, his name is Alex Rider, and then they plan to kill him. They set the building on fire, but by a miracle Alex escapes off the roof. He then is invited By Mr. Drevin himself to tea and then to a vacation where he can recuperate. I think this vacation would be awesome because you would get to be with a multi-billionaire and use all their stuff, pretty much do whatever you want, but Alex is hesitant. I can see why he would be hesitant, his past experience with a multi billionaire had almost gotten him killed. This book seems so good because it would seem like nothing could go wrong, but at the same time it is too good to be true. All of Drevin’s riches, it just doesn’t seem to fit all together, and that’s exactly what the CIA think.
