From the Depths of Vispa

Newly arrived on the soggy planet of Vispa, spaceboy Zafe encounters a creature from his nightmares. And a gravity-defying goat. He will only survive with the help of his friends.

Zafe is sent to Vispa, a watery planet of teetering towers and too many insects; a world away from life on the space station. He must get to grips with hammocks, fruit, Vispan plumbing - and an ancient monster that has risen from the depths.

The "Fearsome Five" sail on the Thames Sea, discover the caves of Istanglia and climb Bakossi. They must find the mysterious Guardiax, and save Vispa from the clutches of a beast Zafe and his friends must beat or be eaten by. But:

• Tycho and Walf want to keep it secret;
• Suza wants to write a project about it;
• And Addie wants Gonzales to help. (He's a snail, what does he know?)

A "must read" for fans of Harry Potter, Artemis Fowl and the Narnia books, 'From the Depths of Vispa' is a space adventure for intrepid readers, (9 years and up), set in a peculiar world of ferocious sea creatures, sinister librarians and dodgy dinners.

The first in the Gallant Saga.
