Review

'An excellent start to a promising series. It is every boy's wish to be a spy, and this book will enthrall every single one of them.' (The Bookseller )

Praise for books in the CHERUB series: 'Punchy, exciting, glamorous and, what's more, you'll completely wish it was true.' (The Sunday Express )

'An exciting, swiftly moving tale' (School Librarian )

'A fast-paced action thriller, which should turn into a fantastic series - if James manages to live that long.' (Young Post )

Product Description

When a small-time crook suddenly has big money on his hands, it's only natural that the police want to know where it came from.



James' latest CHERUB mission looks routine: make friends with the bad guy's children, infiltrate his home and dig up some leads for the cops to investigate.



But the plot James begins to unravel isn't what anyone expected. And it seems like the only person who might know the truth is a reclusive eighteen-year-old boy.



There's just one problem. The boy fell from a rooftop and died more than a year earlier.

Format:Paperback
There isn't many good teenage boy series out there that actually tell a story, instead of just mindless shootings and killings, but Cherub does, the plot is fast paced, the characters loveable and although the story little unrealistic the books in this series are utterly addictive! And as although this is primarily a boys series, I am a girl and have loved every single book though and though. In The Killing the mission seems routine, but it turns into anything but. If you liked the previous books then you will love this one.

Just in case of any confusion here is the order of the Cherub Series

1. The Recruit
2. Class A
3. Maximum Security
4. The Killing
5. Divine Madness
6. Man Vs Beast
7. The Fall
8. Mad Dogs
9. The Sleepwalker
10. The General
11. Brigands Mc
12. Shadow Wave

Read this book! 22 Sep 2005
Format:Paperback
The 4th book in the series is every bit as good as the others, if not better. With cars, girls, money and trouble around every corner as the basis of every great spy story this book has got those bases covered. And alongside this are the odd details that give the CHERUB series that special touch to seperate them from other child spy stories - the down to earth points that make the story all the easier to relate to.

Even if you don't do anything else this afternoon then you should get this book!

(Recommend it to your local library, that way more people can read it and you can save the world 1 tree at a time)

Brilliant 20 April 2009
A Kid's Review
Format:Paperback
These books are probably the best series I've ever read. The plots are good, the action's great and it's amazing how Robert Muchamore has made it realistic! Is the grown up version of Alex Rider, in my view. The prequel, The Escape (see Henderson's Boys), is great as well.
