Report incorrect product informationThe Alex Rider 13-book box set by Anthony Horowitz follows a teenage spy who is forcibly recruited by the British intelligence agency MI6 after the suspicious death of his uncle. Packed with high-tech gadgets, globe-trotting operations, and life-threatening encounters, this young adult action-thriller collection traces Alex's journey from a reluctant fourteen-year-old agent to a battle-hardened target of deadly global organisations. A summary of each book included in The Complete Missions 13-Book Collection Set follows below. Book 1 to 5: The Early Missions Stormbreaker: After his uncle Ian dies, 14-year-old Alex is coerced into MI6. He goes undercover in Cornwall to investigate Herod Sayle, a billionaire donating "Stormbreaker" computers to British schools with a hidden, lethal purpose. Point Blanc: MI6 sends Alex to an elite boarding school in the French Alps for the rebellious sons of the ultra-wealthy. He discovers the sinister headmaster, Dr Grief, is creating clones of the students to take over world industries. Skeleton Key: Teaming up with the CIA on a remote Caribbean island, Alex must foil General Sarov. The rogue Russian general plans to use a nuclear bomb to rewrite world history. Eagle Strike: While holidaying in France, Alex is targeted and acts without MI6's support. He takes on popstar-turned-terrorist Damian Cray, who wants to hijack the US nuclear arsenal to eliminate the global drug trade. Scorpia: Seeking the truth about his late father, Alex travels to Venice and discovers Scorpia, a ruthless international syndicate of assassins. He faces a crisis of loyalty before working to dismantle their plans. Book 6 to 10: Global Conspiracies and Prequel Ark Angel: While recovering in hospital, Alex saves the son of eco-terrorist billionaire Nikolei Drevin. The investigation forces Alex into a battle that stretches all the way into outer space. Snakehead: Forced into an alliance with the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS), Alex infiltrates human smuggling rings and the Bangkok underworld to stop a devastating weapon launch. Crocodile Tears: Alex crosses paths with Desmond McCain, a corrupt charismatic figures posing as an international charity do-gooder. Alex travels to Kenya to stop a catastrophic genetically-engineered agricultural plot. Scorpia Rising: In a brutal final showdown in the Middle East, Scorpia plots to execute a multi-layered trap to finally destroy Alex and black-mail MI6, leading to a tragic personal loss for the young spy. Russian Roulette: This unique entry takes a break from the timeline to follow Yassen Gregorovich. It serves as a prequel, exploring how a regular Russian boy grew up to become Scorpia's deadliest contract killer. Book 11 to 13: The Return and The New Threat Never Say Die: Traumatised by his past, Alex tries to live a normal life in the US. However, a mysterious signal convinces him that a close friend is still alive, leading him back into danger to rescue them. Secret Weapon:...
