Snakehead

An Alex Rider Adventure

By: Anthony Horowitz

Narrated by: Simon Prebble

Alex Rider is an orphan turned teen superspy who’s saving the world one mission at a time—from #1 New York Times bestselling author Anthony Horowitz!

When Alex Rider crash-lands off the coast of Australia, the Australian Secret Service recruits him to infiltrate one of the ruthless gangs operating across Southeast Asia. Known as snakeheads, the gangs smuggle drugs, weapons, and worst of all, people. Alex accepts the assignment, in part for the chance to work with his godfather and learn more about his parents. What he uncovers, however, is a secret that will make this his darkest and most dangerous mission yet … and the knowledge that his old nemesis, Scorpia, is anything but out of his life.

Another thrilling Rider adventure!

I could barely take my headphones off in this recording of Alex Rider's Snakehead spy novel. Looking forward to the next one!

It was a really great book!

It was amazing, except the performance is a 4 because the end was not as intense as the other books in the series and Ash being what he was (no spoilers) was not dramatic enough, and the reader could not have seen it coming.

Quick thinking and quicker action

Why didn’t I discover this series sooner!! Can’t wait to introduce this to my grandchildren

Alex Rider does brownface in this one

I definitely did not think twice in middle school reading about Alex dipping himself into a bathtub and dying his skin brown so he could go undercover as an AFGHAN REFUGEE?? That was a pretty wild choice, Mr. Horowitz!

<Insert Interesting Title Here>

Hate the big betrayal, but it really does make the story even better. So much really good backstory-building in this one. The reunion with Sabina at the end is cool too.
