Book Review

Title: The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp

Summary
Alfred Kropp is trying to survive high school when his guardian uncle ropes him into a suspicious get-rich-quick scheme: stealing Excalibur, the legendary sword of King Arthur. But having successfully retrieved it our unlikely hero, Alfred, unwittingly delivers the all-powerful weapon into the wrong hands. Events unfurl and, with his only surviving relative brutally murdered before his eyes, Alfred not only has a very important mission to complete but also a certain score to settle. So with an ancient order of knights in hot cars, thugs on motorcycles and a mysterious international organisation following his lumbering step, Alfred undertakes modern-day quest to save the world from imminent destruction.

My thoughts
I feel that book always kept me on my feet as it was as if reading a manuscript of an action movie. With its fast paced and hilarious story line. This book will keep you at the end of your seat.
Though the ending id the same as all rational books where good triumphs over evil, the content in the middle is worth a read as you will never feel bored .
