Awesome adventure!
A sign of a good book? Reading it straight through in an evening, pausing only to grab a drink or food. Well, that's what I did with this one because I literally couldn't put it down!
The Henderson's Boys series is pretty much a prequel to the CHERUB series. CHERUB is an organisation that was set up by Charles Henderson during World War II, training youngsters to become secret agents - because no one suspects a kid. The first two books have had Henderson, along with a handful of war orphans, scuppering the Nazi's plans to envade England. they have now made it back to Britain and set up a training facility. Secret Army folllows the first lot of kids through their training and a final test which will enable them to be allowed to be dropped into occupied Europe on actual missions.
Really great plot, combining the exciting adventure I've come to expect from this and the CHERUB books as well as loads of great detail about how the CHERUB organisation came to be. by Tasha -
Great book.
I loved this book. I read it within 3 days of getting it. The only fault I found was the fact it focused too much - for my liking - on training. Robert did manage to fit action in, but I would have liked more action. Still, what a good book! I'd defiantly recommend it [but read The Escape and Eagle Day first to know what's going on] by Jack K.
