QUESTION 1:Do you think you would read another book by this author? Why or why not?

RESPONSE 1: I think I would definitely read another book by this author because his writing is so suspenseful and makes you want to keep reading until the last page. In every one of his Alex Rider books it has been so hard to put the book down so I read until I am about to fall asleep. He has written another series which I am guessing is a suspenseful thriller so I bet I wouldn't be disappointed reading it.
The reason why his writing is so captivating is because he adds violence, such as fist fights and shoot outs. Most of the time it revolves around a murder. I am a person who enjoys to read those types of book because I love the action and suspense it gives you. You start to root for the main character who is trying to escape from all the villains he encounters. So, yes I would read another one of his book.

QUESTION 2:What other character(s) beside the main character is really important to the story? How and why?

RESPONSE 2: I would say that Desmond McCain is the most important character besides Alex Rider because he is the bad guy and every one of the book there has to always be a madman. He is incredibly and he kills anyone who gets in his way of taking over the world. He covers up any of the dirt that people can find about him so he seems like a great person who would never think of having a plan that would kill millions of people. McCain meets all of those standards. He gives money to charity and has fundraisers. His blankets himself with an entirely different person so people wont suspect he could be doing any thing wrong.
He needs to be in the story because Alex Rider has to find a way to stop him. He needs to save the world from this evil genius. If wasn't so powerful and smart then Alex wouldn't have any challenge in taking him down. This man is important because he put Alex in deadly situations that any normal person would wouldn't be able to think of. For example, he leaves Alex dangling over vicious crocodiles and when you think there could be no possibility of survival an agent saves him at the last second. That is why this character is so important to the story.
