Crocodile Tears (Alex Rider)

Product Information

I haven't read any others (yeah I know that it is bad to start a book in the middle of a series) but I must say that I am very excited to read the others. I would like it to be a surprise, diving into Alex's mind to figure out what he thinks and ultimately the whole plan. Samantha Redwing, the Chief Science Officer, analyses the sample but cannot make out anything dangerous about it. I was okay with this part, other than the fact it seems quite obvious than Anthony has never really been to India. How on Earth can a fourteen year-old grab hold of a rope hanging from a plane while on a wobbly roof about to fall off?

It's a page-turner that will have you on the edge of you seat reading in the middle of the night until Alex gets himself out of the very last impossible situation. As the mission involves getting access to Straik's computer, one gadget is a memory stick disguised as an eraser; the other gadgets include two exploding gel pens, a diamond-edged knife disguised as a pencil sharpener, a CCTV camera jammer and communicator disguised as a pocket calculator, and a disguised swipe card that opens any door in conjunction with a reprogrammer built into a lead-lined pencil case.Dan SH suka part apabila mereka mengatakan sesiapa yang menguasai genetik tumbuhan boleh menguasai dunia. Tajuk Crocodile Tears atau Air Mata Buaya ni SH rasa sangat kena dan bertepatan dengan isi ceritanya. He meets Alan Blunt and Mrs Jones, who tell him to gather information on Leonard Straik while on his upcoming school trip to Greenfields Bio Centre (where Straik works as Director), and in exchange, they will threaten Bulman into maintaining absolute silence.

An original thriller, Magpie Murders was published last year and got some of the best reviews I've had.

One problem I found was that unlike Snakehead and Scorpia there wasn't any of Alex's background even though it was gr8 :-) P. The journalist has the cheek to pop up at his house, while he’s having dinner, and offer to do an expose, and cut him a 50-50 deal from whatever he makes. The author use informal diction here mostly because of the reputation of the series and to help readers connect easier with the character Alex who is 14, which is about the young adults age.
