This is the story of an emergent AI that forms on the WWW. It is ushered by a blind girl who gains sight through technology. In gaining this site she initially is able to "see" the WWW. This is when she discovers the emergent AI, or perhaps it discovers her.


I'd certainly recommend the trilogy. It is a good story line and well paced. While that said, I don't think I'm as head over heals with it as Tom is/was. While there is some tension in the book, it is mild and too easily overcome by the protagonists.

3.5 Stars out of 5 overall for the series.

You just don't know excellence when you see it, BOb! This series blew me away.

Do you agree that the third was the best of the trilogy?
