User Review - Flag as inappropriateWatch is the second novel in the WWW trilogy which begins with Wake and ends with Wonder. In Wake, 15-year-old Caitlin Decter, a teenager born blind, receives sight through a radical new treatment. The same treatment serves as a as a window on the world for an emerging AI entity, which Caitlin ushers into the world.
The story continues in Watch with a US agency noting the appearance of the AI entity now known as Webmind. The story explores the source of conscientiousness as Caitlin and Webmind try to ensure his continued existence.
As with most of Sawyer's previous books, he introduces interesting scientific and technical ideas interlinked with fast-paced drama and action.
The concluding novel in the trilogy, Wonder, is not yet published.
