Brilliant intro to a brilliant series!!!!

2[]

Very good. It is highly unrealistic, but is very fun! Alex just lurches from one danger to another; the author seems to have crammed in as many as he possibly can! Very good, and very exciting!

Guns and shooting, quite a few scary moments when Alex is about to get killed, although he always miraculously survives.

Alex has learnt karate, and knocks about three people out using it.

Occasional swearing.
