Alex makes it back to earth safely, but is promptly convinced to go on another spy mission, this time with his godfather with the idea that Alex will finally learn some things about his parents. Along the way we get an up close and personal look at people smuggling and betrayal. As always, Alex's quick thinking and uncanny luck save the day.

Alex has just returned from outer space, and Snakehead picks up quite literally where Ark Angel left off. Since splashing down just off the Australian coast, Alex visits the offices of ASIS, the Aussie equivalent of MI6. The head of the ASIS, Ethan Brooke, asks Alex's help with a special mission, which of course Alex declines. Except that his partner for the mission would be Ash, his godfather and dad's best friend. Given the connection to parents he will never know, Alex accepts, and as can be expected-- is immediately whisked away into one deadly situation after another. Fans of the series won't be disappointed other than the fact that there is not yet a sequel to continue the series!

Anthony Horowitz's "Snake head" is a fiction story about a British teenager named Alex Rider who is a secret agent for Britain's MI6 (it's like our C.I.A.) Alex's mission in this story is not given to him by MI6 but by the ASIS in Australia his mission is to infiltrate an international gang's (Snake Head) trading system. The snake Head illegally transports refugees from other countries into Australia. Since Alex is still a teenager he is accompanied by another agent his name is Ash and he is Alex's godfather. I did not like this book one single bit. I did not like this book for many reasons; one reason was because it was just plain boring I mean at some points in the book I felt like I was dragging myself through the book just to finish it. When I have to suffer through a book like that it's just not worth my time. Another reason I didn't like this book was because it was so predictable I mean it was pretty much life and or death situations every chapter it there was one really gruesome part in the book and I wasn't even affected by it. My rating for this book would be a 2 and one half in my opinion this book wasn't that great but if you like action adventures you could read it but I advise against it but feel free to read it.

Alex's latest adventure finds him newly returned from space and just wanting to get back to a normal life, but instead he must masquerade as a fugitive in South East Asia. Sigh, Alex is getting a little boring. He needs to grow up a bit (despite the fact that the books have been around for years, apparently in the chronology of the series, Alex has only been a spy for about a year). Good adventure but a little more dark and violent than needed.

I was so happy to see another book in this series, and to be able to find it at Walmart was just another added bonus. My son loves this series and this is about the only way I can keep him reading, is to buy books by this author.

yeah i bought this book and when i started reading it i couldn't put it down. great addition to the alex rider series...but i hope there is a new one lol

If you've been following Alex on his adventures this is a book you don't want to miss. Action packed and an amazing read. Guaranteed best read of the year.

Anthony Horowitz is quite possibly the best author out there. The Alex Rider series is great i cant wait to get snake head. (try out the gatekeepers series as well)

I really enjoyed this book- it expertly continues the Alex Rider series!

Nice clean book thank you

Amazing book, loved the characters and story line

Bought for 10 year old grandson, he loves the Alex Rider books - he finds it hard to put down once he's started reading the story. Very good value and lovely condition.

The Alex Rider book series takes the reader into an action thriller pack adventure. Just when you think its all over, the survival instincts kicks in. Thanks Anthony.

I have recently read the book snakehead by the popular British author Anthony Horoitz. He is an excellent author and has many titles. This book is part of his most famous Alex Rider series. It is the seventh book in the series, the longest, and my favorite.\n---Summary---\nI don't want to reveal much, but here we go. From Alex's last mission, Alex touches down in his last mission in a space craft in a Rocket pod. He is picked up by the ASIS (austrailian secret intellegence service)and brought to austrailia where he is recruited by the blind leader of the ASIS... Read the book to find out more.\n---end---\nI hope you liked my reveiw. I highly suggest buying and reading the book. You will definetly not be dissapointed! I sure wansn't! Have fun!

I Just Love The Anthony Horowitz Books They Just Grasp You By The Neck Lock You In A Room And Hide The Key

I bought this book for my son. He has never been much of a reader but seems to love the Alex Rider series. I have told him for years that you can get lost in a story. I always have a book in my hands. Since he started reading this series, he always has his nose in a book. If I have to buy every Alex Rider book written, well, I will to give my son the gift of love of reading.

This story as with all the Alex Rider books leaves you wanting more. My son is 11 and is really enjoying the boy-spy element. Very well written for that age group. I also cant get enough of the Alex Rider stories. It is also good to read them in order.

My son has read all the books in the Alex Rider series and really likes them all. The author does a good job on character development and keeping it exciting for the youth reader.

My 14 year old daughter loves this entire series. Once she starts to read it she can't put it down. She is not a big reader, but with these books she loves to read.

A great chapter in the Alex Rider series. It takes a few chapters to get you hooked, but you will be rewarded for your patience, and then some.

Writer good and product ok
