Sources Patrol
For anyone who's wondering, I'm slowly and methodically combing through every article on this wiki from A to Z and adding a "Sources" section at the end of the article.
One of the first things I noticed about this wiki was it's apparent lack of sources cited. I plan to change that through a time-consuming campaign I like to call "The Sources Patrol." Anyone can join me, just put the message "I'm part of the Sources Patrol" on your profile.

Stormbreaker: A Review
Stormbreaker: A Review. A book review by User:WarriorLoverInc on the Alex Rider novel Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz.
I must admit, when I first picked up the title, I was not intrigued in the least.
My school library and I have been good friends over the years. Over three-fourths of their books have been lovingly paged, checked out and in, and re-shelved by my hands. My problem: what to read. I wanted action, suspense, a strong plot, and thriller! I didn't get any of that from the cover of our edition of Stormbreaker.

WHAT IS THIS GOSSIP I HEAR!?
According to this Wikipedia article, there is a potential of the Alex Rider series becoming a TELEVISION SERIES! This garners a few reactions from me.
- My inner fangirl says: "OMG!! YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!" *shreik*
- My inner cynic says: "This is Wikipedia."
- My outer scorn says: "The TV series would ruin it."
- My outer fan says: "Oh heck yeah!!"
Meanwhile I find nothing else about this on the internet (I almost rue the day they invented it). I research the television station that would host it, ITV. It airs Anthony Horowitz's other series', Foyle's War and stuff, so there is a bit of a link, but now I'm just grasping at strings.
