2 Evil Star


Matt is needed again, this time a second gate is opening in Peru. But who is Matt's friends and who are his enemies? Will Matt, with his friends, be able to save the earth from destruction by The Old Ones?

The Old Ones are back in full force (not really out but they still are in the story). Matt loses control and makes some stupid moves.

Richard is still helping Matt, letting him live in his house, taking care of him (mostly) and putting himself in danger for him. It sounds like Matt is finally going to accept that he's a part of this (he is ?? Wow).

I think it might have been better for Mr. Horowitz to stick with reality. The whole Old Ones/ Five idea is a little hard to swallow. He seems to be using the same themes as from Alex Rider, but they just don't work with fantasy. We can sympathize with Alex not wanting to be a spy (though it gets a little old), but fantasy is all about excepting you destiny, why can't Matt? And what is it with rich and/or deformed people??
