haha, that's funny.

okay, BOT:
when i read the part where alex said he woujld join scorpia, i was ready to stab the book. i was so relieved when i read the end. i know this is premature, but if they make a movie for this story i think it'll be rated PG-13/12A because Nile stabs the sword through the guy's head, Rothman literally gets crushed, etc.

my favorite parts when AH squeezed in those witty comments. for example:
"I'm perfectly qualified to give you an injection," Dr. Steiner said. He raised an accuseding finger. "You're not going to tell me you're afraid of a little prick?"
"I wouldn't call you that, "Alex muttered. He rolled up his right sleeve.

i had to read it twice to understand what he was saying cheesy

here's another part:
Mrs. Jones took up the story. "The gondola from underneath the balloon fell on her as she was trying to escape," she said. "She was crushed."
"I'd have been disappointed too," Alex muttered.

those two parts were quite funny Cool  cheesy


Lol those were EXACTLY the two bits I was going to say I found funny! And yeah it took me several seconds to get the prick comment, but when I did get it, boy, I almost cracked up that second! Alex is such a cool character- I love the fact that he can make jokes in the most dangerous situations:

(ARK ANGEL SPOILERS)

When he's captured by Kaspar and his men and Alex meets the guy, he says "You'd be useful to have in a geography exam" or something like that  cheesy
