Product description

Alex Rider creator Anthony Horowitz has really hit his stride with The Power of Five, a dark and brooding horror series that shrieks with nerve-shredding tension. Five teenagers. Five outcasts, standing against a terrible evil. Troubled orphan Matt has no idea that he is one of them… until he finds himself stranded in Yorkshire, threatened by black magic, and fighting to prevent the opening of a gate which will destroy his whole world. Sweeping from rural Britain to the mystical peaks of Peru and the sun-blanched Nevada desert, Horowitz’s rich, atmospheric storytelling recreates classic boys’ adventure on an epic scale. Contrasting the primitive horror of witchcraft and monsters with modern technology and ancient Inca mysteries, these sizzling bestsellers crackle with suspense, and stretch readers’ endurance to the max.

Anthony Horowitz started writing because he wanted to be like Tintin. He has now travelled to all the places that Tintin has been – apart from the moon!

His Alex Rider series is one of the most popular children’s book series ever, and the first Alex Rider book, Stormbreaker, became a major Hollywood film. In 2003, Anthony won the Red House Children’s Book Award (voted for by children) for Skeleton Key.

He is also the author of the highly acclaimed Diamond Brothers detective stories, as well as the bestselling The Power of Five books, which were inspired by a simple thought. “Isn’t it more exciting to imagine these great battles with all their magic and mystery happening in the very high street where you live, just out of the corner of your eye?”

Anthony lives in central London with his wife Jill Green, a TV producer, and their sons Nicholas and Cassian. His whole family gets involved in his writing. Jill has produced several of Anthony’s scripts, including the drama serial Foyle’s War, which won the Lew Grade Audience Award in 2003. His son Cassian is already a seasoned actor, having appeared in three of his shows, and Nicholas, his oldest son, has helped Anthony to research the Alex Rider books by trying his hand at everything from scuba-diving to snowboarding and surfing!

In 2013, Anthony was awarded an OBE for services to literature..

    This series is great. It’s like my favourite series. I have read these atleasta hundred times. I think Matt is the bravest of all the five but my favourite is Jamie. I think this series is PERFECT. I hope they turn them into a movie.
