Robert Muchamore
Robert Muchamore (born 26 December 1972) is an English author, most notable for writing the CHERUB and Henderson's Boys novels.
Early life
Robert Muchamore was born in London, and is the youngest of four children. Muchamore grew up in Tufnell Park and attended St. Johns Upper Holloway and Acland Burghley, leaving with a D in A Level economics and the hope of becoming an architect, photographer or writer. After realising training as an architect would require "too much work," and a Saturday job in a camera shop put him off being a photographer, he turned to writing. However, when he found his writing was not to a quality he would have liked, he gave up and secured a job as an office junior for a private investigation firm in 1991. He describes the 2010s for him as "pretty dull".
Career
CHERUB
Robert Muchamore started writing the CHERUB novels because his nephew in Australia could not find any novels that he liked reading. He tried to write novels that he would have enjoyed reading when he was an adolescent, a time when he remembers being too old for children's novels but not old enough to read adult novels.
