Quick recap

Sinkholes start opening all over Florida, swallowing streets and yards. The Vargas kids learn the cause is small dragons releasing methane underground. The giants were after the Wyrm King, a hydra-like creature made of dragons stuck together. Nick takes on the monster and beats it by cutting the stuff that binds the dragons together. Sandspur turns out to be a spriggan. In the end, the Vargas family, which started the trilogy split apart, stays together, and Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles ends here.
