Snakehead (Alex Rider Series #7) Book

You weren't in any real danger. We knew exactly where you were all the time.


another Alex Rider book is done and usually at this point i would be finished a series but not this one i still have another four books in this series to go until i finish it.

Plot: This one picks up right after the events of Ark Angel were Alex makes a crash landing back down to earth after destroying the hotel that was up in space. You would think that Alex would get a month break after every assignment to be a normal kid but nope he is thrown back into the spy world and thrust into another assignment. Alex is picked up by the Australian Secret Service and is asked by them to take down the criminal underworld that is in south east Asia.


We also learn in this one that Alex has a god father who was his fathers best friend and they are soon put on a mission together. I was really hoping things would look up for Alex and he would finally have a good family member who he could trust and actually have to be in his life boy was i wrong. Ash who like Alex was working with MI6 turns out to be a double agent and in fact working for scorpia. Just please can something go right for Alex? can we have someone come into his life who's not trying to kill him for once just once please.


Jack's and Alex's relationship in this book is really strained in this one because of everything MI6 has put Alex through over the course of a year. I would love to see these two just go away and spend time with each other away from this spy world because Jack's is the last good thing Alex has in his life and i don't want this relationship to be ruined.


I'm always surprised how much Alex has been through in a short amount of time and i always think huge amounts of time has passed during each book and its always mentioned hes a 14 year old boy and that still shocks me.


It was a nice surprised seeing Sabina return at the end of the book and i wasn't expecting it but it was really good for something good to happen to Alex for once.
