CHERUB agents are highly trained, extremely talented--and all under the age of seventeen. For official purposes, these agents do not exist.

I liked the premise (not that "use children as spies" is particularly unique) and from what I saw here and there, I was expecting the CHERUB series to top Alex Rider.Unfortunately while the story itself wasn't bad, the writing was... well.
