Muchamore emphases the power of his child protagonists to endure, to keep fighting whatever the insanely unfair world of adults throws at them (Waterstone's Books Quarterly)
A brilliant series (Newcastle Upon Tyne Evening Chronicle)
This book was unputdownable. It gripped me from start to finish (Aaron Marchant, aged 14 First News)

'It has the feel of something quite big and satisfying... Muchamore's voice is fresh and direct.' (Daily Telegraph)
Muchamore's plain, punchy, often funny style ... is highly effective... This clever, tense novel is a great way of getting bored boys interested in history. (Amanda Craig, The Times)
This book was un-put-downable. It gripped me from start to finish, and was just as good as the CHERUB series, if not better! (Aaron, 14, First News)
