Set at a caravanserai along the Silk Road, 'Night Sky Dragons' is Mal Peet and Elspeth Graham's third tale in a trilogy of texts. Yazul, a young boy, spends most of his time with his grandfather in his workshop, making kites. More than anything, Yazul wants the approval of his father, the lord of the han, but this love of kite-making only ever seems to elicit disappointment: 'travel and trade are what matters,' his father says. One day, the han becomes surrounded by a group of bandits. Everyone becomes trapped within the walls of the han and with the bandits waiting them out, food becomes scarce and spirits rapidly fall. However, Yazul has an idea. With the help of his grandfather he might just be able to scare the bandits away and save the han!
