The creative work 'The Nightwatchers' is a novel with gothic undertones, written for a young adult audience. Twelve-year-old Mattie Russo and her best friend Harry are the 'nightwatchers', who entertain themselves by watching the comings and goings of the residents of their apartment block. When five-year-old Sammy goes missing, they play detective, discovering his corpse by the local river. Mattie and Harry realise the murderer is someone from the apartments who's been watching where the local children play; this puts them in danger. Mattie cannot turn to her illiterate Italian grandmother (Nonna), or her depressed father for help; nor can Harry turn to his drunken, violent parents. When another boy disappears, Mattie and Harry return to the river in search of him, terrified that their silence has cost the boy his life. The plot of the novel is a device to engage the young adult reader; the novel is most importantly a 'multicultural' work, drawing attention to the need for cross-cultural communication in Australia. The relationship between Mattie and her Italian migrant grandmother is crucial to the novel. Their struggles to communicate (Nonna's broken English and Mattie's inability to speak Italian) mean they must each 'culturally negotiate' two cultures. Although the contemporary relevance of the concept of multiculturalism has been contested, I use the arguments of Wenche Ommundsen to support my claim that recognition of cultural difference and representation of minority groups is still important to Australian society and literature. My exegesis, 'Breaking English', analyses contemporary sites of 'cultural negotiation', including my own experiences of negotiation, both as a 'writer' and a supporter of 'multiculturalism'. I examine multiculturalism in a social and political context, in relation to contemporary literature and to my own novel. I compare my novel to Melina Marchetta's Looking for Alibrandi and other multicultural young adult narratives. Finally, I consider the process of writing a novel with my illiterate grandmother Esterina as a muse.

The Night Watch series has caused a sensation never before seen in Russia -- its popularity is frenzied and unprecedented, and driven by a truly great, epic story. In 2005 Fox Searchlight announced it had acquired the Russian film adaptation for an American release. Interest in the books here is now set to reach a fever pitch. Set in modern day Moscow, Night Watch is a world as elaborate and imaginative as Tolkien or the best Asimov. Living among us are the "Others," an ancient race of humans with supernatural powers who swear allegiance to either the Dark or the Light. A thousand-year treaty has maintained the balance of power, and the two sides coexist in an uneasy truce. But an ancient prophecy decrees that one supreme "Other" will rise up and tip the balance, plunging the world into a catastrophic war between the Dark and the Light. When a young boy with extraordinary powers emerges, fulfilling the first half of the prophecy, will the forces of the Light be able to keep the Dark from corrupting the boy and destroying the world An extraordinary translation from the Russian by noted translator Andrew Bromfield, this first English language edition of Night Watch is a chilling, engrossing read certain to reward those waiting in anticipation of its arrival.

When his mate is endangered by his reckless actions, all esteem is lost, and he must redeem himself in her eyes as well as within the ranks of the other agents in The Nightwatchers crime fighting organization. Codes of chivalry might have to be abandoned when an old, cloaked enemy uses every conniving scheme to retrieve dangerous magical objects before Skord and his friends can locate them. Travel, adventure, excitement, and unexpected turns lead the heroes deeper into mysterious cases where anyone can be lying, almost no one can be trusted. If old enemies are keeping secrets, so are the leaders of the entire Nightwatcher agency. This is a continuation of The Nightwatchers series - stories where a few vampires are the good guys, and some humans exist only to destroy each other.

Sean Reilly never asked to be a vampire. All he wanted to do was go home, to his beloved Ireland. But war got in the way. When he's mortally wounded and turned during World War II, he uses his new, preternatural abilities to fight evil. He does so as a member of a unique and secretive crime fighting organization: The Nightwatchers. Sean's oath to never mix business with pleasure takes a hit after he changes a dying, Los Angeles police officer named Morgan Grady. Like most humans, Morgan never considered vampires might actually exist. Not until she's shot and left for dead, and awakens as an immortal. She has only two choices - join The Nightwatchers organization and work with Sean, or be forever hunted by creatures of the night. When Sean and Morgan are confronted by a very old and powerful entity - an ancient vampire who is bent on destroying the entire organization - they must find some way to fight as a team. They must face not only their foes, but the terrifying possibility that they were meant to be together forever. What lurks in the darkness might not be as fearful as one individual bent on total destruction. It takes a unique mindset to hunt those who would terrorize the world. Do members of The Nightwatchers have what it takes? Rating: Limited sexual scenes, 90% action-adventure Book 1 of a series

The Nightwatchers crime fighting, action-adventure series continues... There was a time when men believed in honor more than anything else. Chivalry was the rule of the day. In the continuing series of The Nightwatchers, Skord Shorner seeks to recover magical relics that he once lost in 1816. Only when they are locked safely away from humanity can he rejoin the vampiric agency he once loved and thereby regain his honor. When Skord is ordered to work with an unknown Irish woman, to accomplish this task, suspicions arise. Who is Chalyce Duncan? What secrets is she hiding and why is she more important to the agency than some of its most experienced members? Lies are compounded when a cagey, murderous vampire enters the search for the relics. It's now a race between good and evil; right and wrong. Skord must find the artifacts he lost before sinister minions of darkness use them for evil purposes. Surrounded by vampires who want to see him dead, the hero must rely on his cunning and experience to keep himself alive and recover what he lost, so long ago.

I thought everything would change, after the war. And now, no one even mentions it. It is as if we all got together in private and said whatever you do don't mention that, like it never happened. It's the late 1940s. Calm has returned to London and five people are recovering from the chaos of war. In scenes set in a quiet dating agency, a bombed-out church and a prison cell, the stories of these five lives begin to intertwine and we uncover the desire and regret that has bound them together. Sarah Waters's story of illicit love and everyday heroism takes us from a dazed and shattered post-war Britain back into the heart of the Blitz, towards the secrets that are hidden there. Olivier-nominated playwright Hattie Naylor has created a thrilling and theatrically inventive adaptation of a great modern novel. The stage adaptation of The Night Watch was premiered at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester, on 16 May 2016.
