 Another great story from Robert Muchmore December 10, 2007

This thrilling tale is about how James Adams (a CHERUB Agent), Kyle and Lauren (James's sister) have to try to infiltrate an animal rights organisation. They are all thrown into a world of extreme political violence. James and Kyle meet up with two brothers who want to get involved with the AFA (Animal Freedom Army). From there they find themselves in a world of political extremism meeting people that will do anything to help animals. James and Kyle hear of a massive plot that involves some sort of extreme violence. Will they go through with the plot? Will James and Kyle turn against CHERUB to save some animals? Read it and find out. This is a fast action paced thriller and well worth reading but the violence in the book makes it unsuitable for younger readers.

Having read all the previous CHERUB books i wasn't sure what to expect with this book. All the previous books have been superb and i have to say, so was this. It is another fast paced novel. I read the last hundred or so pages so quickly as they keep you turning pages, scared and excited as to what would happen next.
I think this, and 'Maximum Security' are the best books i have read since Alex Rider.
Read this book but be sure to read the previuos ones - starting with 'The Recruit' - first.
Great series, but the first was the best October 30, 2006

The Cherub series could compete with Alex Rider to be the best young spy series - but Muchamore needs to be careful not to let the quality slip since the first, excellent book in the series 'The Recruit'. The trouble is that the 'Jimmy Coates' series by Joe Craig is at least as good, if not better, and that seems to be improving with each book so far.
So if Muchamore wants Horowitz's crown, he better make sure the Cherub series stays fresh and original, like Jimmy Coates, and not just another 'young boy on a secret service mission' series.
Having said that, this book is really entertaining and has all the action and thrills you'd expect - it's just not as good as 'The Recruit', and I'm worried that teh author is running out of new ideas to keep things exciting.

The kind of book that you pick up to read the first chapter and are turning to the last page without really knowing where the time's gone. A brilliant read, but I'd buy the others first if you havent read them!

The latest addition to the CHERUB series is the finest book so far, as well as being the most gripping tale it's also unquestionably Robert Muchamore's most motivating book so far in the already superb series. Three fully trained teenage spies, James, Lauren and Kyle have are sent on a mission to gather intelligence on members of an anti-animal testing extremist group.
The reason: Adults don't expect children to be spying on them.
The book contains all the action, excitement and tense situations of the CHERUB series so far, as well as tit bits of information on vegetarianism and animal cruelty. In addition to the thrill that any teenager loves to read Man Vs Beast will truly make you think about your views of animal testing and cruelty.
With many twists and turns, thrills and nerves Man Vs beast will have you up all night biting your nails between turning the pages.
