The second book is really good so far, but like The Hunger Games the first is better than the second in my opinion. There isn’t as much action in the second book as there is in the first, and the first is more exciting than the second. Overall I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a good action book.

CHERUB: The Dealer
After finishing the first CHERUB book I decided that I would start reading the second. The book starts of with the group from the last book in a training exercise. It is a stealth exercise with James and his friend Kyle against Kerry and one of her friends. James's group loses and their coach tells them about many careless mistakes that they made. The coach then realizes that James isn't exactly fit yet. Coach makes James and Kyle walk all the way back to base. When they get back they are told that they will be going on a mission soon. The goal of the mission is to stop a drug lord who is smuggling cocaine. They will have to go undercover to become a family of seven. James fits in well with the people who he is supposed to befriend. He eventually starts going to a boxing club which the drug lord owns.

I have also read this book, and thought it was great. I agree that it wasn't as good as the first, but it was still fun to read. Also, I thought the beginning of the book was very misleading, because it was very action packed, but it turned out not to be a real mission, it was just a training exercise. I believe I have read four of the CHERUB books, and if I remember correctly, the third is more interesting, so you should give that one a try.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds really interesting. I haven't read the first book but based on your review I'll probably read it since I crave action-packed books. I'm sorry you don't like the book as much as the first and that it's not action-packed. Good-review overall.
ReplyDeleteSounds very interesting. i've always thought about reading the cherub series but never got around to it. they sound like my kind of books. my only problem with them is that they seem like one of those series like Alex Rider of the James Bond movies that are really disjointed, to overall storyline, just a bunch of separate books with the same characters.
