Anthony Horowitz
Long before Alex Rider became a teenage icon or Sherlock Holmes returned to the page with fresh intrigue, Anthony Horowitz was crafting mysteries of his own—first in his imagination, then on the page. Born in 1955 in Middlesex, England, Horowitz grew up surrounded by stories, both real and invented. He discovered early that fiction was more than escape; it was a place to find order in chaos, to solve puzzles that real life couldn’t.
What sets Horowitz apart in the world of crime and thriller fiction is not just the breadth of his work, but the way he reinvents the familiar. Whether he’s breathing new life into Conan Doyle’s beloved detective or twisting timelines in Magpie Murders, Horowitz writes with a sleight of hand that keeps readers constantly guessing—and always a step behind. His novels don’t simply offer whodunits; they explore the act of storytelling itself, often blurring the line between author and character, fiction and reality.
Alex Rider
Before he ever asked for danger, it came looking for him.
The Alex Rider series drops readers into a sleek, shadowy world where espionage wears the face of a schoolboy and trust is always a calculated risk. At its heart is a reluctant teenage spy—a boy who should be worried about exams, not explosives. But when MI6 comes knocking after a devastating personal loss, he’s forced into a life of covert missions, double agents, and secrets far older—and deadlier—than he ever imagined.
Alex Rider consists of thirteen primary books, and includes two additional books that complement the series but are not considered mandatory reads and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
