Alex Rider has been through a lot for his fourteen years. He’s been shot at by international terrorists, chased down a mountainside on a makeshift snowboard, and has stood face-to-face with pure evil. Twice, young Alex has managed to save the world. And twice, he has almost been killed doing it. But now Alex faces something even more dangerous. The desperation of a man who has lost everything he cared for: his country and his only son. A man who just happens to have a nuclear weapon and a serious grudge against the free world. To see his beloved Russia once again be a dominant power, he will stop at nothing. Unless Alex can stop him first… Uniting forces with America’s own CIA for the first time, teen spy Alex Rider battles terror from the sun-baked beaches of Miami all the way to the barren ice fields of northernmost Russia. From internationally bestselling author Anthony Horowitz comes the twelfth thrilling installment of the Alex Rider series! Follow the world’s greatest teen spy as he sets off to Gibraltar after the death of Scorpia, and enters into a battle against a new criminal organization: Nightshade.

" 'Alex Rider' Renewed For Season 2 By IMDb TV". Deadline . Retrieved 10 November 2020.In the most recent book, Nightshade, it is revealed that the two children Alex saw in the photograph in Mrs. Jones' apartment when he was sent to kill her in Scorpia are in fact her son and daughter, William and Sofia. She reveals that their father (and her husband, from whom she is estranged but not legally separated) was "Hans Meyer", a Russian deep cover agent disguised as a German writer; when Blunt told her of "Hans'" true allegiance, she telephoned him and told him that she knew. He fled the country, abducting William and Sofia (who were six and four, respectively) in the process. She believed that she had lost her children forever, until the assassination of MI6 agent "Pablo" in Rio showed that Sofia was involved in the man's death; although she escaped, she was photographed. Alex goes undercover at the criminal group "Nightshade" in Crete, and discovers that William and Sofia, along with twenty-one other children, are the organisation's assassins. By the novel's end, Alex manages to reunite Sofia with her mother, for deprogramming. Mrs. Jones hints that she may end up recruiting Alex to MI6 properly in the future. In Nightshade Revenge, Alex is able to recover William as well, and at the end of the novel Mrs. Jones resigns from MI6 to look after her children, actively ending Alex's involvement with MI6.

Tea With Smithers’ was also ridiculously short. It was interesting to read it in the first person from Alex’s perspective. It was a cool story with an invention that I certainly didn’t see coming, and neither did Alex! Typical Smithers!! 3 stars. In Asia, both the first and second seasons are available on SonyLIV (in India) and AXN (in Southeast Asia). [40] Reception [ edit ] This short story could possibly be considered AU (alternate universe) as Spectacles was killed in Ark Angel but this story appears to take place after the events of the novel, as the narrator comments near the beginning that Alex's kidnapping at the hands of the four men led him to "Ark Angel, the extraordinary space station orbiting the earth."
