REVIEWED BY A SECOND PARTY, UPLOADED BY THIS USER.
The story follows Alec Corbett as he battles to bring down the villainous and morally corrupt Board of Officials in a very Alex Rider-esque way. While the plot may be full of twists and turns the narrative is easy to follow.
The concept and plot are particularly well thought through and there is always something to keep the readers attention with a few shocking and even tear-jerking moments along the way.
Fans of Alex Rider (or any other Anthony Horowitz work!) will enjoy this as will those with an interest in Sci-Fi. That being said however I do feel it would appeal to a wider audience of many ages and interests as it is an easily accessible book with themes that most people can relate to at least on some level.
The only thing I will say is that some characters needed a bit more development as there were many emotional issues that were glossed over in favour of a more action-packed plot. Although that isn't to take away from the emotional issues that WERE covered.
Definitely worth a read and I look forward to the promising sequel.
