Synopsis

After a tsunami causes massive devastation to a tropical island, its governor sends in the bulldozers to knock down villages, replacing them with luxury hotels.

Guarding the corrupt governor's family isn't James Adams' idea of the perfect mission, especially as it's going to be his last as a CHERUB agent. And then retired colleague Kyle Blueman comes up with an unofficial and highly dangerous plan of his own.

James must choose between loyalty to CHERUB, and loyalty to his oldest friend.

For official purposes, these children do not exist.

About Robert Muchamore

ROBERT MUCHAMORE was born in Islington in 1972. As a teenager he dreamt of either becoming an architect, a photographer or a writer. On discovering that architects have to train for seven years and after quitting his Saturday job in a camera shop, he saved up enough money to buy a word processor and set his heart on writing. The only problem was, he didn't know what to write. So, he found a regular job and spent thirteen years as a private investigator. He was inspired to start writing again by his nephew's complaints about the lack of anything decent to read. Robert's CHERUB and Henderson's Boys series are bestsellers around the world. Robert grew up listening to mix tapes sent to him by his older brother, developing tastes for indie bands like Joy Division, The Pogues and The Smiths. The idea for Rock War came from seeing that many of Robert's fans turned up at book signings wearing the logos of long dead rock bands, and a realisation that his online fan forum had more kids talking about the X-Factor than about his books.

This is the last adventure for James Adams in the cherub series. Spoiler Free :) Robert Muchamore sticks to his tried and true formula for this book, and it does not disappoint.

Goodreads review by Ryan on October 27, 2013

Shadow Wave is the final novel of the cherub series and in my opinion, a perfect ending for James Adams. The book starts with James back in Devon with the Brigands MC trying to bring down the Furher. I think that it was great to finish the Brigands mission for it was one of the best missions that Ja......more

Goodreads review by Natalie on February 07, 2019

In this - the final instalment of the original Cherub series - we have an epic finale to the long-running series, with a follow-up on the Brigands mission that sees all the loose ends tied up ((view spoiler)[and the Fuhrer finally taken down! (hide spoiler)] ); some flashbacks to a mission that Kyle featured heavily in involving a......more

Goodreads review by Shantanu on January 19, 2012

Shadow Wave, the final installment of Robert Muchamore’s CHERUB novels, is less impressive than the rest of the series. There were several defining features of Muchamore’s previous pieces that were missing in this one. In this book, James, a seventeen year old agent, meets his retired friend Kyle in......more
