 Skeleton Key Review Oct 02, 2008
I thought this book was one of the best. It's not my most favorite book of the Alex Rider books but I still thought it was good. I liked how Horowitz used the CIA instead of the MI6, the MI6 was getting old. If you have read the other books, then I say you should read Skeleton Key along with the others that follow. If you like action and adventure books then I say you read the Alex Rider books (but start from the first book, Stormbreaker). This book is one of the weirder ones but its still good, sometimes weird is good.

 Alex Rider Sep 26, 2008
Eagle Strike is the fourth book in the Alex Rider series by Anthony Horowitz. Alex is a truly wonderful creation. He is the person every schoolboy in the world wants to be. Each of Horowitz's books is twice as good as the last. Horowitz has excelled himself yet again with another fantastic book.
In " Eagle Strike" Alex is still only fifteen but has already had three life changing adventures that involved poison gas, clones and ultimate world domination. This time Alex Rider is on the track of multi-millionaire Damian Cray. When he sees contract killer Yassen Gregorovich visit Cray he suspects the worse. When MI6 refuse to look into it, Alex decides to investigate, with or without their help.
Fate also leads Alex to his destiny. But does he like what he finds?
Tension, atmosphere and suspense unite in the adventure of a lifetime. Enter Alex's world of spies, gadgets and murder in this superb book. It will take your breath away.
Alex Rider Skeleton Key Sep 13, 2008
This is one of the best Alex Rider books. Its fast, fun and should be made into a film. Anthony Horowitz seems to be able to pull the reader into the story.
I am hooked on the whole Alex Rider, Young James Bond and Jason Steed books. Good clean fun with good guys and bad guys.
Alex Rider vs Young James Bond vs Jason Steed vs Cherub Sep 12, 2008
This is a great story, again Anthony Horowitz has us on the egde of our seats.
The story has a very similair theme to the Young James bond book Hurricane Gold. In Skeleton Key Alex Rider and Hurricane Gold Young James Bond, both teen hereos are on a hot tropical island owned by a villian, both villians want to adopt the young teen heros, despite the youngsters trying to spoil there plans. Both villians let the boys go. However both are fast paced and good reading. Its a shame they have followed the same pathm but if you are into Alex Rider, Jason Steed, Cherub and Young James Bond this is still a great book.
Skeleton Key Jul 05, 2008
Skeleton Key is just the next twist in the Alex Rider series. This book sets the stage for what will happen in future novels! The writing is wonderful! Horowitz is great at building not only a plot, but also at keeping your attention on the story. The Rider series also allows the reader to pick the series up at any time and be up on the action.
