This is where the dragons went. They lie . .

Not dead, not asleep, but . .

Dormant. And although the space they occupy isn't like normal space, nevertheless they are packed in tightly.

They could put you in mind of a can of sardines, if you thought sardines were huge and scaly. And presumably, somewhere, there's a key to let them out. Captain Sam Vimes of the Night Watch is going to have a doozy of a night when they are.

This edition features ten glorious full-colour illustrations and further pencil drawings by Terry Pratchett's artist of choice, Paul Kidby.
