Watch 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.

User Review  - Maurinejt - Goodreads

Much better than the first one. Okay the characters are still lame, and Caitlan's erstwhile romance made me roll my eyes, a lot. Give the author some credit, at least something was going on during one ... Read full review

It was after seeing the first book in this trilogy on the shelves at Barnes and Noble (when I was still shopping there) a few times that I decided to pick it up and read him, and I'm glad I did. I ... Read full review

User Review  - Michael - Goodreads

To rate this book as a single is meaningless. I don't know how the author wrote it, but this reads like a single book broken into three volumes. Each volume on their own does not work. As a whole ... Read full review

User Review  - Matthew Hester - Goodreads

There are two things that Sawyer does right with this novel, and one thing he does wrong. Unfortunately it is the one thing he does wrong which really stands out in the novel, to the point where the ... Read full review
