Description: dark hair that falls in a comma above his brow, despite efforts to control it; blue eyes; tall for age; surprisingly strong; fluent French, good German. Essential components: a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing; a girl - blond, green-eyed, named Wilder Lawless; a fast car. Additional detail: Sinister experiments at a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands; the disappearance of a young boy; and a dangerous encounter with killer eels. Meet James Bond - before the name became a legend, and before the boy became the man, in this thrilling prequel from 'The Fast Show' star and 'Bond' aficionado Charlie Higson.

A step up from the alex rider series in terms of character and story. Recommended for those who have started to tire of the incredible twists of alex rider.
