Scorpia is an exciting, action, thriller that locks you in once you start reading. The book has action from begining to end. Alex Rider is James Bond when he was fourteen. Anthony Horowitz has done a great job writing this book and the action doesn’t stop here. I recommend this book or series for people who like spy movies with gadgets, mystery, suspense and action.
