Russian Roulette: The Story of an Assassin
by Anthony Horowitz
I have to say it, even if this book is a spin-off and doesn’t largely involve Alex, this is the best book in the Alex Rider series by a long shot. I know I still have 3 books to go but I don’t think this will be beaten.
What makes it special is that not only is it an incredibly gripping story of transformation with deep emotion and detail, it’s also linked with several details of the past Alex Rider books and draws parallels between Yassen and Alex. That combination makes it a truly remarkable book.
Does it beat my favourite book of all time? Invictus by Ryan Graudin. Well, I read that a long time ago so it’s difficult to say, and anyway, the genres are different. However, it’s fair to say that this is the best spy book I’ve ever read.
