''Dragons at the Party'' is a 1987 novel from Australian author Jon Cleary. It was the fourth book featuring Sydney homicide detective Scobie Malone, and marked the character's first appearance in print in fourteen years.〔Mark Thomas, 'Entertainment and Surprises in up-to-date Australian Thrillers ', ''The Canberra Times'' 13 December 1987 (p.10)〕〔Des Partridge, 'Cleary's Little Thriller Gem' ''The Courier-Mail'' 14 November 1987〕 ==Background== Cleary did not originally intended to turn Scobie Malone into a long-running series. However, after his daughter's death in 1987 his wife fell ill, and Cleary was not able to travel as widely as he liked in order to research his novels. This forced him to write about Sydney and he thought that returning to the crime genre was a way to write about Australia while still appealing to the international market.〔(Murray Waldren, 'Jon Cleary: Character Builder' ''The Weekend Australian'' 1998 )〕 The novel was a success and Cleary concentrated on writing Malone adventures until 2003.
