A very fast, action-heavy book with a teenage protagonist who is blackmailed into working with MI6. I vaguely remember reading it and perhaps a few others when I was younger. Interesting to reread.

Alex Rider isn’t as good a spy as I remembered (despite being experienced in absolutely everything that comes up), but it’s still a gripping read. If you wanted to read deeper, there is some criticism of government in the actions of the prime minister and also the blackmail from MI6.

Flawless. That Portugese Man-o-War really had an insane impact on an entire generation of British schoolkids, huh.
