#26 The extraordinary adventures of Alfred Kropp by Richard Yancey

When Alfred's uncle forces him to help steal something from his employer's office, he had no idea that he would be starting off on a fantastic chase around the world. (of course he also didn't know that he was stealing Excalibur) In this first of a series, Richard Yancey tells a story that combines a modern hero with the legends of King Arthur. Fans of Alex Rider will enjoy this book (and I hear that the second one is even better). I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars.
