In \u003cem\u003ePirate Hunter\u003c\/em\u003e, Alex is still mastering his new powers when Haven Bay comes under attack from pirates sailing a ship built from rubbish, hunting for the missing egg of the elusive water dragon. \u003cem\u003eMonster Avenger\u003c\/em\u003e raises the stakes further as a mysterious parasite infects sea creatures — including Alex's dragon friend — forcing Alex and his team to brave electric eels, furious crabs and raging storms, even venturing inside the dragon itself to save it. The series concludes with \u003cem\u003eZombie Fighter\u003c\/em\u003e, in which a ghostly fog unleashes crab-riding zombies commanded by a vengeful pirate spirit, sending Alex, Zoey and Anil into three perilous bottle-trapped worlds to recover the only weapon that can stop them.
