I really liked Scorpia Rising! This entire series has been such a great thrillride! I highly recommend reading this book to all lovers of the Alex Rider series. I gave this book 4 stars, mostly because I give hardly anything 5 stars anymore. But this book was an awesome adventure that really draws you into it. It was a trully great read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

So does this mean that the series is finally done? It seems like it has spanned about 10 years! Glad you have enjoyed it and recommended it.
I suppose I should finish the series...
Haven't started the series so I don't think I will.
Have nver read the series, but I think I might now.
I've never read the series, either.
Idk how much girls would like it, but if you like details, then you should find it interesting.. but then again the details in this book are more towards boys.. like seeing a guy with a gun, most books would just say "omg he has a gun" but this series would tell what gun specifically the bad guy is holding.
I haven't rad the series so I probably won't end up reading it.
