The CIA doesn't have to do many collaborative operations with the home team. Which is probably good - the FBI has this thing called morality, which Joe has always thought is a bit overrated. But here they are asking, yet again, for some assistance. Joe thinks it's time to unleash his secret weapon: Alex Rider. If Alex can't manage to cause so much chaos that the FBI never wants...

SCORPIA has to rethink their plan when the American president is fine with a load of kids from some other piddly country over there dying. It's not like they're AMERICAN children, right? Besides, Britain is basically part of Germany or something, if you look at a map. Aren't Germany evil? And they lost a war. What kind of losers lose a war? America has never done that. Pah.

No one is quite sure who came up with the idea, but it made sense: there would be someone rich enough to pay for you to cause a natural disaster, and if you waited long enough then it was basically inevitable. Easy money. Like taking billions of dollars from a rich man. SCORPIA didn't expect it to go quite this far however - they're being blamed for WHAT now?

Desmond McCain thought he was being clever by keeping half of the money that people donated to his charities. Those management costs really just.. add up, you know? He is disgusted when his charity is praised for its low management costs by the Times Magazine.

With Jack's death and the threat of Scorpia on the rise, Alex is sent to his old SAS unit for protection. Haunted by his past and terrified of his future, will Alex finally be able to heal and move on? Or has he fallen past the point of saving? Remember, Scorpia never forgives and it never forgets...

Cyborg Alex from the future is sent back to the age of the dinosaurs. After fighting off Pterodactyls, and befriending a T-Rex, he manages to make his way back to 2021, only to discover that the local chickens remember his mutually beneficial relationship with their age-old feathery ancestor. Well, he HAD been planning to revisit MI6...

"I'm looking for...something deadly..." - "Mate, this is a pet shop. What do you want me to do? Feed a hamster steroids?"

Forever my memory would be etched in the minds of my peers as the kid who lost his way after the death of his uncle. 'So much potential,' they would say, 'he could have done great things.' Or so I thought. Turns out graduation was about to get interesting...

Possible Devilverse? [Spoiler: It's Devilverse.] Alex decides to get a pet. A beautiful stag finds him. Honestly, they said "no large carnivores." Deer aren't carnivores.

How Brendan Chase met his wife. Play on reality TV romance tropes. Basically, Chase is a fucking dumbass who is definitely relying on his good looks.
