Never Say Die

Fifteen-year-old MI6 agent Alex Rider travels around the world on a dangerous mission to destroy the deadly terrorist organization, Scorpia, once and for all.

Lynn Braden

Alex is living in San Francisco with Sabina Pleasure and her parents.  He is trying hard to live this new life until he receives an email that he is sure was sent by Jack.  No one believes him because everyone, including Alex, thought she had been killed in Egypt, but he is determined, so when the Pleasure's are away, Alex takes off for Egypt.  What he doesn't realize is that his search for Jack will lead him into a new adventure that may be more dangerous than any he has already encountered.

Never Say Die basically restarts the Alex Rider series after the events in Scorpia Rising.  Once again, Alex is on his own, when he stumbles on another devious plot arranged by villains formerly associated with Scorpia.  The search for Jack leads Alex to several countries, so the story includes the description of exotic locales around the world.  The toll that the previous year has taken on Alex is clear as he is unable to make friends in San Francisco because he knows he will always be lying to them.  Also, Mrs. Jones indicates that Alex has become addicted to the danger and will probably never be able to live a normal life.  Overall, Never Say Die is a good soft reboot to the Alex Rider series.

Alex Rider is now an IMDBtv original series! The world’s greatest teen spy is back in action in a thrilling new mission: destroy once and for all the terrorist organization SCORPIA. Americans may have purchased more than 6 million copies of Alex's adventures, but now, more than ever, we all need his heroics. Following the events of Scorpia Rising, Alex relocates to San Francisco as he slowly recovers from the tragic death of his best friend and caregiver, Jack Starbright, at the hands of terrorists working for SCORPIA. With Jack gone, Alex feels lost and alone, but then, out of the blue, he receives a cryptic email--just three words long, but enough to make Alex believe that Jack may be alive. Armed with this shred of hope, Alex boards a flight bound for Egypt and embarks on a dubious quest to track Jack down. Yet SCORPIA knows Alex's weakness. And the question of whether Jack is alive soon takes a backseat to a chilling new terrorist plot--one that will play with Alex’s mind as he grasps the magnitude of what is at stake. From Egypt to France to Wales, from luxury yachts to abandoned coal mines, Alex traverses a minefield of dangers and cryptic clues as he fights to discover the truth. The #1 New York Times bestselling series, perfect for fans of James Bond and Jason Bourne, is back with a vengeance! Praise for Never Say Die: "Once again amid races, chases, hails of bullets, and increasingly spectacular explosions, the teenage James Bond pulls off one awesome feat of derring-do after another. [This] fresh caper . . . roars along to a (naturally) explosive climax."—Booklist "In his usual breakneck fashion, Horowitz whisks Alex from one improbable situation to another . . . this installment is sure to please Alex's legions of fans."—Kirkus Reviews
