In \u003cem\u003eMalamander\u003c\/em\u003e, Herbie Lemon's talent for reuniting lost property with its owner is tested when the \"lost thing\" turns out to be a girl with no memory of herself. \u003cem\u003eGargantis\u003c\/em\u003e follows a fierce electrical storm that washes a strange bottle ashore, reawakening old legends of a monster from the deep. \u003cem\u003eShadowghast\u003c\/em\u003e brings a hypnotic stage magician and her shadowy entourage to town on the eve of Ghastly Night, stirring up secrets the townsfolk would rather forget. In \u003cem\u003eFestergrimm\u003c\/em\u003e, an old enemy resurfaces alongside a legendary clockwork automaton and a decaying waxworks gallery, pushing Herbie and Violet into their strangest case yet. Finally, \u003cem\u003eMermedusa\u003c\/em\u003e sees a paranormal podcast crew descend on the town in midwinter, hunting for the malamander once more, while Herbie is plagued by unsettling dreams and the eerie hum that haunts Eerie-on-Sea. Together, the five books form a satisfying mystery series that rewards reading in order while working as standalone adventures. Thomas Taylor's inventive world-building and moody seaside setting have made the series a firm favourite for readers who love mystery with a splash of the supernatural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete five-book paperback collection in one atmospheric mystery series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for independent readers aged 8-12 who enjoy folklore, mystery and gentle scares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-contained stories that also reward reading in series order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated throughout by author Thomas Taylor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal gift set for birthdays, Christmas or reading rewards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat addition to school and home libraries for reluctant and avid readers alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThomas Taylor is a British author and illustrator best known for creating the original cover artwork for the first UK edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone before going on to write his own acclaimed fiction.
