Honestly, I got so sad when they revealed the real reason why and how his parents really died.

This one is by far my favourite of all the Alex Rider books—apart from no. 10: Russian Roulette, Yassen’s book—it really shows how much MI6 and everyone else in his life lies to him, for the “greater good”.

I just want to jump into the book and give this boy a hug ffs.
