From the Publisher Caitlin Decter is a typical teen-smart, pretty, and wired ... but she's also blind. She undergoes an experimental procedure to regain her sight and the results are unexpected. She "sees" but not just the way we do-for her the world wide web is a riot of colours and shapes, its own dimension. While exploring it, she finds an "other" lurking there-and it finds her, seeing what she's seeing and learning as she learns. But that's not where it ends ... About the Author Robert J. Sawyer, who has been called "the dean of Canadian science fiction," has won all three of the world's top science fiction awards. He lives in Mississauga with fellow writer, Carolyn Clink.
