Stormbreaker is the first in series of books and I found it very interesting. It is about this boy who finds out his uncle had died in car crash because he wasn't wearing his seatbelt. But his uncle always wore a seat belt. He then gets a letter from MI6 to meet them at a secret location. He is then made a secret agent and finds out that his uncle was also working as a secret agent and that he is going to be doing the case that his uncle was doing when he was shot. Not killed in a car crash. I give this book 8/10 because it is a really good book. I now want to read all the rest of the books in the series.

This is an interesting book to read especially as we have read some of the young James Bond series by Charlie Higgson. I found this to be a good yarn however I thought the style was a little basic and I did not enjoy the story as much as I expected. The premise of the story is classic adventure about a boy who is orphaned and lives with his uncle who mysteriously dies. It turns out his uncle was a secret agent and he is recruited and trained to work for the secret services. I found the book enjoyable but wished for more depth in the story. I would not go out of my way to read one of these books again. I recommend you look to Charlie Higgson if you want a good secret agent yarn. 6/10
