There’s a storm raging in Eerie-on-Sea. Has the mighty Gargantis come back from the deep…?

When an ancient bottle is found washed up on the beach after a ferocious electrical storm, all the residents of Eerie-on-Sea seem to want it … but should they in fact fear it? Legend has it that the bottle contains an extraordinary secret that spells doom for the whole of Eerie-on-Sea. Could it be true that the vast sea creature Gargantis has awoken from her slumbers, and is causing the large cracks that are appearing all across the town? Finding themselves entrusted with the bottle, Herbie and Violet discover they will need to ride the terrible storm and pacify the creature if they want to save Eerie-on-Sea from sliding into the ocean and being lost for ever.

I can't believe that Deep Hood is Sebastian Eels.

It was a good book for people who like adventures near the sea. It had a surprising ending.

My favourite person was Deep Hood as he was the only evil character in the story and he was revived into a monster and was a character in the previous book. I would recommend this book and the previous one also.

It was fiction horror story. My favourite character was Violet Parma, a very enthusiastic young girl who was an orphan. She was very brave and defended her best friend when he was accused of being a traitor. I would recommend it to readers who like adventure, fantasy and horror stories.

It is a great book and always keeps you entertained and curious about what you are going to read. I would definitely recommend this book to people who like books with action in.

A vicious storm is raging. When a mysterious clockwork shell is handed into the Grand Nautelus Hotel, Herbie and Violet don't know what to think. They're still not certain, when a fish shaped bottle is washed into the town. When they find a magical SPRIGHTENING in that bottle, they don't realise that it is about to set them into deadly peril. And at the centre of this plot is a mysterious betentecled stranger. Who is he? The answer lies in the jaws of the Gargantis.

I like the teeny Sprigthning best because she can shoot little sparks and came to the rescue a few times.

This book I think is a Non-Fiction book because the illustrations are not that real in my opinion and I liked all the characters in this story it is kind of Factual but I'm not sure I don't know how it interested mean I don't know if I want to recommend it to someone else.

I liked the book, because it had a chapter where they tell you something important at the end and then they go onto another chapter, so you want to read another chapter. I don't like the parts where they are on the boat, because it is a bit boring and all they do is talk about how to fix the boat and it isn't really part of the mystery. I also like it when a bad person tells the main character something that is also important. (But in the next book someone else says it isn't true.)

Got this for Christmas and started reading it right away. Loved the first book too The Malamander. Can't wait to read the next one too. The concept of the story is amazing and it is full of twists. It's amazing.

This book was packed of exciting adventures and daring quests. It tested friendship and trust. This book is simply a great book!

It was a fictional story about the adventures of Herbert and Violet in Eerie-on-sea. They had to be detectives and solve strange events. I would recommend it.

I would have never thought that a giant sea monster would not harm anyone. Although I would rather go on adventures with Herbie and Violet.
