James arrives at CHERUB the night after his twelfth birthday and, after learning how to swim under the guidance of Amy Collins, immediately enters Basic Training. After returning from basic training, he discovers his sister Lauren has also been recruited following the arrest of her father Ron Onions on various charges (including possession of drugs and stolen artefacts, and abusing a minor). In The Recruit, James begins his CHERUB career. This results in Lauren living with her father and James staying in a children's home called Nebraska House, because Ron didn't want him. However, Ron does not live with them and only visits when he wants money from Gwen.Įarly in the first book, their mother passes away because of a mix of alcohol and pain medication. He is described in The Recruit as being like "a loud, smelly rug". His mother married Lauren's father, Ronald 'Ron' Onions, who was verbally and physically abusive towards James. When James was two years old, his mother gave birth to his half-sister Lauren Zoe Onions (later known as Lauren Adams, taking on the same crypto-surname as her brother). James didn't know who his father was, though it is revealed in a deleted chapter from Divine Madness (as well as at the end of the book Shadow Wave) that he was a mathematics professor. He lived with his half-sister Lauren and his mother, Gwen Choke, who ran the largest shoplifting empire in North London from an armchair in their living room. James was born under the name James Robert Choke in Tufnell Park, London on October 27, 1991. He also made an appearance in the last book, New Guard. He made an appearance in the third book of the second CHERUB series, Black Friday and is a mission controller in the fourth book of the second CHERUB series, Lone Wolf. However, he is still referred to as James in later books. At the end of his CHERUB life, he returns to his "Choke" surname and switches his two forenames around, to become Robert James Choke. He ended his CHERUB career wearing a black T-shirt, which is the most elite colour granted. Upon joining CHERUB he changed his surname to Adams, which is derived from ex- Arsenal FC defender Tony Adams. James Robert Anthony Adams (born James Robert Choke) is the main character in the first series of the acclaimed book series CHERUB by British author Robert Muchamore.
