Thomas Taylor is an award-winning author-illustrator for children. He illustrated the cover for the very first Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and has since gone on to write and illustrate several picture books and young novels; most recently he illustrated Scarlett Hart: Monster Hunter, written by Marcus Sedgwick. This is his fourth title in the Legends of Eerie-on-Sea sequence; the first, Malamander, was published to huge acclaim in 2019 and was followed by the equally popular Gargantis and Shadowghast. Thomas lives on the south coast of England and can be found on Facebook and Twitter: @ThomasHTaylor
Reviews
Thomas Taylor has created another original and somewhat chaotic ripping yarn.

There is much to enjoy about this series – from the fantastic characterisation and Herbie and Violet’s voices that you cannot help but enjoy as you follow them into their next great adventure. The creepiness is palpable and enjoyable, and the pacing and humour have not waned since Gargantis… There’s magic in Taylor’s writing that pulls you into Eerie-on-Sea, takes you on a grand, spooky, atmospheric adventure until you resurface at the other end.
