Return to the world of Mortal Enginesin this book of three short stories about the rebellious young aviatrix, Anna Fang, illustrated by Ian McQue.

THE TIMESCHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE WEEK - July 2018

"This rebel-girl spy merits centre stage" Alex O'Connell, The Times

A key character in the Mortal Engines book and film, this is your chance to learn more of her past.

Night Flightsincludes Traction City, the 2011 World Book Day Book by Philip Reeve.

In a dangerous future world where gigantic, motorised cities attack and devour each other, London hunts where no other predator dares.

But Anna Fang - pilot, adventurer, spy - isn't afraid.

The three stories show gripping, moving, exciting moments in Anna Fang's life:

  • her childhood as a slave aboard the moving city Arkangel,
  • a showdown against a robotic Stalker that is terrifyingly out of control
  • and her free life as an intelligence agent for the Anti-Traction league that might not be quite as free as she hoped...

Fully illustrated throughout with stunning drawings by Ian McQue, cover illustrator of the His Dark Materials& Book of Dustseries by Philip Pullman.
