Crocodile Tears

Crocodile Tears is by Anthony Horowitz. The eighth installment in the Alex Rider series. Alex is "persuaded" by MI6 to check out the head of a company specializing in genetically engineered plants. But nothing is ever simple, Alex is kidnapped by a famous philanthropist and taken to Africa. Now he must escape hungry crocs and stop a humanitarian disaster. This book is every bit as action packed as the others in the series. Alex's adventures and magnificent escapes are becoming less believable with each new book however. While some may find these stories still exciting others may find this series nearing the end of believability.

Ratings: 7th grade - 7 out of 10.
