Cherub: The Dealer by Robert Muchamore

Genre: Realistic Fiction/Spy Novel

# of Pages: 308

RAC Book: Yes

James is back in this sequel as a twelve year old secret agent in CHERUB. He begins the story by failing a training exercise and must face some rigorous training in order to earn some respect back from his fellow agents. When he is asked to join a mission with three other teens he is eager and ready to go again. Their mission is to befriend the children of a notorious drug dealer. He ends up making friends with Junior, the boy his own age, pretty quickly and becomes one of the best inside informants. As the others try to find information on the drug ring itself, James is offered the chance to deliver cocaine for cash. He takes the opportunity to try and learn more about the inner workings of the organization, but quickly wonders if he has gotten in over his head. Can James and his friends escape this mission unscathed?

This sequel is every bit as fun and exciting as the first. James’ mission is dangerous, exciting, and believable as an important mission for any country to be focusing so many prime resources on. The book is fast paced and the facts are revealed in a timely manner. Fans of spy books such as The Sleeper Code will enjoy this title.

It sounds like a good premise. It is grounded in the past (child inverstigators) but gives it a new twist. The proof is in the treatment.

Please visit my blog and leave a comment. Thanks!
