Review
'Muchamore's plain, punchy,often funny style ... is highly effective. This clever, tense novel is a great way of getting bored boys interested in history.' (The Escape) -- Amanda Craig, The Times 'It has the feel of something quite big and satisfying...Muchamore's voice is fresh and direct.' (The Escape) -- The Daily Telegraph 'Mixes espionage and gritty realism when dealing with children in the midst of a war' -- Waterstones Quarterly, March 2009 'This book was un-putdownable. It gripped me from start to finish, and was just as good as the CHERUB series, if not better.' (The Escape) -- Aaron, 14, First News 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 action packed tale... a thrilling page turner that you won't want to put down' -- Liverpool Echo
