Top Teen Novels. Spy Books

As I turned 18 I thought my reading style would change, well it hasn't. I still love Young adult books and these must ne the best Young Adults books for boys, all of them teen spys books.
1) Fledgling Jason Steed. by ?? according to the book Mark A Cooper, according to the net, its was written by Anthony Horowitz under a pen name. Regardsless of that, it's the number 1 young adult book, fast, fun, adventure and some emotion, Loved it, should be a film. Jason Steed is like a young Jason Bourne.

2) Alex Rider Stormbreaker. by Anthony Horowitz. They made a film ourt of this, the book is better, the actor who played Alex was good. The entire Alex Rider series is awesome. Alex is like a young James Bond. Crocodile Tears comes out May 2009.

3) Silverfin.Young James Bond, by Charlie Higson. The first book was awesome, the others sort of slowed down, I was very disapointed in the last book "By Royal Command" But still a good series.

4) The Cherub Series, by Robert Muchamore. About to be made into a film. Great series, although some bad langauge and use of drugs. This was a suprise for a young adult book, the series has improved as the writer gets better.

5) Jimmy Coates by Joe Craig. Another good sereis, maybe not in the class of Jason Steed and Alex Rider but still a greats series and a little different. Jimmy Coates is half boy half machine. He is like Robocop/bionic man.

6) Cody Banks. The books are slow and boring, the two films where awesome, probably the best teen spy films ever made.

7) Spy High Series. by A.J. Butcher. A great series, the title really tells the story, but the agents are from all over the world and it makes a good read. These are as good as Jimmy Coates. And this would make a good film.
