New Guard

New Guard by Robert Muchamore

LAST EVER CHERUB BOOK!

A double kidnapping. A terrorist organisation. Can James Adams bring back the old crew, plus a few additions, in the thrilling last book of the cherub series.

I LOVE THIS BOOK. Often, as a series goes on, the quality of the book get worse and worse. But not the cherub series, and New Guard really proves it. I love that all the old characters meet all the new ones. Cherub really has gone out with a bang!

I am going tog give it an 10/10
and an age rating of 12+

The Recruit : Graphic Novel

The Recruit Graphic Novel. First in the cherub series. By Robert Muchamore

When James' mum dies, he feel's that his life is going down the toilet. His living in a rubbish foster home and his sister has gone to live with his horrible step dad. But then, after getting in trouble with the police, James wakes up on Cherub campus, a spy agency for kids. Things might just be looking up.

I didn't really read this for the story,  I read it for the art work. One of my friends had recommended it and it definitely lived up to expectations. The stile was,  I think, Manga but I could be wrong. All the pictures were colourful and well drawn.

I am gong to give it a 9/10
and an age rating of 12+

Class A

Class A  (second in the cherub series) By Robert Muchamore


James is an ordinary boy. He goes to school, although he's really good at maths, He sometimes likes a punch up, He has a temper. Theres just one thing thats different about him. His mum is a burglar. He has everything he wants. So when his mum dies from an alcohol overdose he thinks he's lost it all. That is until cherub, A spy agency for kids approaches him... .

I think this is a very entertaining read and that anyone into spy books should give it ago. The only problem is that half of it is sort of a love story so it can get a bit boring there. The good thing is that is part of a very long series, all just as good as each other, so if you like it theres a lot more in the series.

I think this book, and the many more after, are good for ages 11+
I am giving it a 9.5/10
