New Jimmy Coates: Power!

The next instalment of the Jimmy Coates series has arrived. Called Power, the book cover says that Jimmy “discovers what some people will do for power – and what he must do to stop them.”

 

So who is Jimmy Coates then? He’s part average boy, part deadly weapon (he’s been genetically modified to be the “perfect government assassin”).

 

If you love spy books then make sure you read this series. If you love these books then also check out the Young Bond, CHERUB and Alex Rider series (and that’s just for starters)!

Young James Bond

book coverYou know about James Bond, right? The ultra cool spy with the ultra cool gadgets and cars and the licence to kill. Well, Charlie Higson has written a series of five “Young Bond” books about James Bond when he’s at school. The official website says that Silverfin has “action, adventure, a terrifying villain and, of course, a beautiful girl.”

 

Have you read any of them? What do you think? Is it as good as Jimmy Coates and other books like that?
