Why am I surprised that it took 12 books to get to the stage where there is a counter organisation of kids used as villainous operatives? We had clones. I really thought kid villains would be the next go-to.

This series never disappoints with the next book always being better than the last one. As always I really loved Alex there is never a time where he is unlikable at all he is like a normal teenage boy with many other things he is very resourceful so able to handle a crisis and get out of most situations. I also loved both Jack Starbright and Tom they had better roles to play this time I liked how they fit well in what happens in the book. I really liked the plot it started with a setup for the plot with a character dying and moving to Alex thinking its all over and continuing with him on another case to save a bunch of people. I really liked how it ended and how it was set up for more of the Nightshade organization with a giant target on Alex's back I am looking forward to where the story goes next.
