There’s also purple foiling on the cover of all editions 💜 and the both the internal illustrations and cover were by George Ermos – and I can’t believe I missed the map until I was looking for the illustrator name!

So he’s not too happy when a bunch of sea creatures drag him to the abandoned aquarium on the hill, where an imprisoned water dragon needs his help. With as much mystery and intrigue as the ocean itself, readers will be swept away by this adventure. Something magical happens when a reader discovers Percy Jackson for the first time, and this is the book series that will give you that same feeling all over again! Their exclusive edition has a wonderful greeny sprayed and stencilled edge with octopus arms on it (they aren’t tentacles - right David?

Meet Alex Neptune, the boy with the power of the ocean in his hands - a brand-new hero for fans of Percy Jackson and Dragon Realm! A great book with a good balance of normal childhood life and a mythical story, a pacy plot, a humble hero, goodies and baddies, everything an 8 year old loves - and his mum too! It's a place full of mystery too, from lights seen in the old, abandoned aquarium to the rather sinister structure recently built on the harbour. The story itself was quite predictable and nothing really new happened that I haven't seen elsewhere.
