1) Mass Market Paperback Book The Recruit (Cherub) by Simon Pulse. Mr. Muchamore has gone out and written an excellent book in the Recuit. I would rate this a major 5 stars. It´s fun and will keep your nose in the book until you finish. This is for young adults as there is mild language so caution. Peter Bell Tevis Jr. High
¤ 2) Mass Market Paperback Book The Recruit (Cherub) by Simon Pulse. I think the recruit is absolutly exellent! I could not put the book down, now that I have finished it I am definitley going to look out for the sequels! It is about a boy who has a terrible homelife but when his mother dies he becomes a spy for the cherub organisation.
It is an exciting book I strongly advise you to read it!!!¤ 3) Mass Market Paperback Book The Recruit (Cherub) by Simon Pulse. If you want a book that´s full of on-the-edge humour, action, and is NOT about elves and dragons, than CHERUB might just be the series you´re looking for.
I give it a five star rating because CHERUB is a crazy book series that´s full of guy humour and stuff teenagers are bound to love. Although most of the humour and content is intended for guys, a girl would have fun reading it just the same.
The first book, entitled The Recruit, introduces the main character, James. James is your typical kid who plays video games and foot ball and never does his homework. When one day, his mom dies, he is taken to live in a children´s home. He soon escapes, getting involved in gangs, smoking, shoplifting and vandalism. After getting arrested, James is taken back to the children´s home where he was secretly drugged during the night and taken to the secret base of government spy group, CHERUB. The story quickly unfolds into an explosive mission!
It may sound cheesy but it´s actually really, really believable! I was addicted after reading the first two chapters!
Full of swear words and Pg-13 content, make no mistake CHERUB is a series teens will love. I think the reason why a lot of kids don´t like reading, is that most stories seem so fake and child proofed; CHERUB is the exact opposite. It is so on the edge, it has a ¡§not suitable for young readers label on the back of the newer copies! You´ll also find it in the 13+ section at Chapters bookstore. I guarantee that if you´re an 11-16 year old who loves action, fights, and stuff that´s really cool, you will love this series.
Each book is about a different undercover mission that James and his fellow agents go on. You can really relate to the characters and they all seem like real teens. There´s a book about drug dealing, there´s one about a prison break, terrorism, even murder. James gets into a relationship with a new girl in every book too:) .And trust me, they all really rock (the books I mean!).
Buy the first book! It´s only $9.95! You will be addicted.
« Just to let you know this series is not intended for younger kids. I wouldn´t let someone younger than 11 read it.

Robert Muchamore
James lost everything, his mom, his sister, and his home. His mom died, his sister was taken, and his uncle took the house he lived in because his mom died. Then he meets these kids and gets in trouble for trying to steal beer from a corner store.
He then gets taken to Cherub (missions for kids that are way too risky for adults.) he finds out that they are trying to recruit him into Cherub! Well, what he has to do first is Basic Training!
The things he has to do in basic training are excruciating. What he does to survive in the energy sucking, stress building, book is insane. I would never survive in the basically, death defying stuff he does. I recommend this book to people who like to the action right away and not a lot of talking!!!

Robert Muchamore
James gets anything he wants. That´s because his mom runs a thieving organization, but all that changes when he finds her dead on the couch right after her boyfriend leaves. He is soon sent to a children´s home where he will be kept till adoption. He feels like his life is screwed up and he´s going down the wrong path. Also he gets in trouble for stealing. He is sent to jail and when he wakes up he is at a place called Cherub. His life changes when he finds himself at a spy organization where they train kids under the age of 17 to spy and fight.
This book is a powerful and exciting, and it will keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time. I think it is a great book and I would recommend it to boys that are in 6th grade or higher because it is brutal and has some harsh language at parts. This book is a thrilling book and you won´t be able to put it down till the end. This is one of my favorite books and I hope you like it too.

It is a highly dangerous job. For their safety, these agents DO NOT EXIST. James is the latest CHERUB recruit. He and his sister were recently orphaned, and James has been in a lot of trouble. But he is brilliant in math. And CHERUB needs him. After one hundred days, the grueling training period is over. But the adventure has just begun.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
