Is a teenage James Bond really possible? Anything's possible in the book Skeleton Key by Anthony Horowitz. The main protaganist in the book, 14 year old Alex Rider, is a spy who later finds himself fighting to keep the antaganist, General Sarov, from releasing a nuclear bomb. This book is set in England and the island of Skeleton Key. All kids interested in action would want to read this book, since the book is action/adventure.
I would reccomend this book to all 6th graders. This book has so much action that half the time you dont know who's alive there is this one scene where Alex drowns after being attacked by a man on a jet ski. I kept wondering if he was dead or not. So, a person can't put this book down for one second since they fear that they will miss something. After looking closely, I can see no weak points in the plot of this book.
An important theme in this boook is faith. Alex must take many leaps of faith to get through his adventures. This is just like the other Alex Rider books. Alex is always getting chased by bad guys. Skeleton Key is a great book.
