I am on page 95 now and the incident involving Michael J. Roscoe is starting to come into play right now. Michael J. Roscoe had problems with his kid and so did several other very rich figures. So they all sent their kids to this school called point blank. All of the rich fathers ended up dying in accidents. It could just be a coincidence, however M16 would disagree with you. So they send Alex to live with a fake rich family for a week so that he could pretend to be they're child and learn more about the family. After that he is supposed to head over to Point Blank and investigate the situation. The academy comes to pick him up via helicopter but first stops off in Paris to refuel, but he stays there for the night. Is there anything going on at the academy? Why does Alex stay overnight in Paris to refuel? read this epic book to find out more details and what will happen next!

Alex Rider Point Blank By Anthony Horowitz
So Far I have gotten to page 50 and some questions are being resolved, although even more questions are being brought up. Alex is back to adventuring and with his adventuring always comes thrilling scenes, fast-paced chapters leaving you wanting to read more and more, on and on. I left you early in the book on page 16 but now I am back and I have done some reading... There is this drug dealer that sells drugs to kids at Alex's school so Alex pursues him. He follows him all the way to the river Thames. There is a boat there and that is where him and his "business" partner live and operate (Their drug factory). There is a construction site right near where the boat is docked so Alex decides to take control and use the crane from the construction site to take the boat and plop it down in front of the nearby police station. Unfortunately he gets busted and they shut off the crane before it gets to the police station. The crane cant handle the weight so the boat falls on top of the community center. Alex gets off the hook because of his special status with M16. What does this have to do with the rest of the book? What is the point of this? Will we ever refer to this again later on in the book? I will keep you informed as I continue.

Alex Rider Eagle Srike Continued...
I got a quite a bit further in the book than before. I'm on page 175 and Alex has decided that he wants to investigate what happened with the bomb. He believes that the pop star Damian Cray is responsible. Which is odd because this is a man that has donated millions of dollars toward charity and helped others less fortunate. This is also why M16 decides against aiding Alex. This however does not stop Alex from continuing to investigate the situation so he finds out that Crays company is releasing a computer game so he goes to their event and tries out the game. The first game released is controversial because it involves violence and he is known for being against violence. This causes Cray to be hostile against the idea. So Alex goes to investigate more at the headquarters of his company and finds out that his theory was true. What will happen to Alex now? I will just have to keep reading to find out.
