When Alex Rider thwarted the plans of the criminal organization Nightshade, he knew he'd made a new, blatantly evil enemy. But he hadn't expected to get sucked back into the spy game so quickly—that is, until the Nightshade masterminds kidnap his best friend, forcing Alex to do their bidding if he ever wants to see his pal alive again.

As Alex dives deep into this latest mission, his friend isn't the only one whose life is on the line. Nightshade has entered the world of virtual reality gaming, and the lines between what's real and what's digital are being blurred everywhere. With a ruthless enemy fighting dirty and not caring who gets hurt along the way, the stakes have never been higher—and this time, it's personal.

This series should be read in order.

Alex Rider is a series of spy novels about a 14-year-old spy named Alex Rider. Raised by his uncle, Ian Rider, Alex travelled widely throughout the UK, Europe and the Americas, learning special skills such as rock climbing, scuba diving, and foreign languages. His unique set of skills and aptitude for languages made him uniquely placed to work as a spy, and he's recruited by Britain's MI6 to help them with unique missions. Inspired by the James Bond character - but about a much cooler young spy!

Note: Books in this series are also available as graphic novels.
