Just snapped this up from the Library Withdrawn & For Sale shelf a few minutes ago. Thought it would make a fun book to release in the hope of attracting new participants to the happy, worldwide book reading community that is “Bookcrossing”.

Book cover: He’s back Alex Rider is in Hospital and determined to put his spying day behind him – but the reluctant teenage super-spy is forced into action once again when a group of deadly eco-terrorists breaks in. Suddenly Alex finds himself in the middle of a war that seems to be somehow connected to Ark Angel, a revolutionary space hotel. This time he will have to push himself to the very limits – and beyond.

Entertaining and incredible as ever, this tightly paced romp moves from an exclusive hospital to space. Yes, space! Despite getting caught up in unbelievable scrapes this young man does have some believable traits, he can get injured and needs recovery time. Mind you here recovery, from a disabling bullet wound in the shoulder, seems only to take a couple of shakes of a lambs tail and he’s off again saving other peoples skin. Hey, ho and so the world of international espionage continues again along its hectic orbit…
