Get ready for James' final adventure in Shadow Wave .... coming soon! Comment from Robert Muchamore - Is this the end of CHERUB? That's one of the most frequent questions I get asked at events and by e-mail. James will be seventeen by the end of this book and ready to leave CHERUB. But will I carry on with a new character? The truth is, even I don't know the answer to that question. I might carry the series on, but only if I can think up some really good storylines. About the author Robert Kilgore Muchamore (born 26 December 1972) is an English writer and author of the CHERUB and Henderson's Boys series. He started writing the CHERUB books because his nephew couldn't find any books that he liked reading. He tried to write books that he would have enjoyed reading when he was 12 or 13, a time when he remembers being too old for children's books but not old enough to read adult novels. The CHERUB series follows the life of a character named James Adams (formerly James Choke), a member of CHERUB, a top-secret branch of the British Secret Service. The organisation recruits orphan children and trains them as intelligence officers. Once qualified, they are used to investigate targets ranging from international terrorists to gang leaders. As children, they are considered innocent by their targets. So far Muchamore has written and published eleven CHERUB novels, with another one in production. Book 12, Shadow Wave, is the last book in the series and will be published in late 2010. The CHERUB series has been sold in more than 20 different countries and has won various awards. Book 1 in the series, The Recruit has won 8 literature awards. Muchamore has also written the Henderson's Boys series - three novels about the beginning of CHERUB. The Henderson's Boys books are set during World War II and follow Charles Henderson, a British secret agent, as he creates the organisation later featured in the CHERUB series. The books feature four children: Marc Kilgour, Paul and Rosie Clarke and PT Bivott. There are 3 books in the series so far, The Escape, Eagle Day and Secret Army. A fourth book, Grey Wolves is due for publication in early 2011. See other books in the CHERUB and Henderson's Boys series click here Shadow Wave Book 12 in the CHERUB series by Robert Muchamore |
