Piracy, Paintballs & Zebras

'This is classic Muchamore: witty characters, clever twists and high-tech gadgetry. This scores a bullseye.' - The Daily Mail 'Muchamore's writing aims for thrills and laughs...[he] writes with tremendous energy and his dialogue flies as fast as Robin's arrows... A new series that strikes the bullseye.' - Children's Book of the Week, The Times 'This high-octane, rip-roaring escapist reimagining from the author of the cult CHERUB series serves up a 12-year-old Robin flush with hacking skills, quick wits and a carbon-fibre recurve bow...Intensely readable, outrageously enjoyable action.' - The Guardian 'Compulsively readable...Meticulously researched feats of action and breathtaking heists.' - TLS 'His latest series, which brings Robin Hood into the 21st century, with Robin as a 12-year-old on the run, looks set to be another adrenaline-filled ride' - The I Newspaper 'A dystopian take on the old myth that will be gulped down like firescorched meats.' - The New Statesman 'For action and adrenaline look no further...sure to be relished by thrillseekers of 11 and up' - The Observer 'Exhilarating and unpredictable, the first adventure in this new series is sure to leave readers desperate for the next instalment.' - BookTrust 'punchy and contemporary' - The Bookseller 'In these testing times, we could all do with a dose of escapism and wish-fulfilment, and Robert Muchamore delivers magnificently in his new adventure, particularly if you happen to be a ten-year old boy.... Muchamore knows just how to keep the pages turning and this is the first in a series that promises quiverfulls of action and entertainment.' - Books for Keeps 'This is a modern day telling of the tale of the band of brothers who steal from the rich to give to the poor, and it is told brilliantly. This is the start of another great series for ages 11 upwards.' - Angels and Urchins
