Here's a series of books that are more age-oriented for this forum.

Wiki

Quote:
 
The first book opens with a 14-year-old orphan Alex Rider learning that his guardian and uncle, Ian Rider, has died in a car accident. Suspicious about the circumstances of his uncle's death, Alex decides to investigate and discovers that Ian was assassinated while working for MI6. MI6 recruit Alex and place him in a gruelling SAS training camp, before sending him undercover to continue his uncle's investigation of Herod Sayle, a lebanese businessman. Although successful in his mission, Alex decides not to continue as a teenage spy, but MI6 keep finding new missions on which he would be useful and new ways to rope him in. The Alex Rider series has been a great success and has introduced many teenagers to reading. The book Stormbreaker was also made a film.


Anyone read these books? Did you like them? Were they too juvenile or poorly written?

I think they weren't written the best they could have been. They were lacking with interesting and different language and seemed rushed, as if some high school kid was trying to finish a report for school the next day. But they do have interesting plots, so I kept going back to read them more. (still, Horowitz has got nothing on Poppy Z. Brite...)

Random generic thing.

It was interesting enough to finish the first book, but not enough to get another.

Lol, not even to see the next exciting adventure?!

They're good books, but the way they're written could turn anyone off, so I don't blame you.
