THOSE
WHO
WATCH

is the strange and seductive novel of three inadvertent colonists from outer space whose accidental encounter with Earth triggers interplanetary conflict.  It is also the most unusual love story ever written.

VORNEEN - the seducer, in the shell of an Apollo who came out of nowhere into the life of Kathryn Mason
GLAIR - the perfect woman, an empty form who filled the hours of Tom Faulkner
MIRTIN - otherworldly friend and mentor of an 11-year-old Indian boy who accepted the extraordinary on faith
ONLY THREE HUMANS WOULD EVER KNOW that the blinding flash in the sky on that night in 1982 was an exploding flying saucer.  Only they would learn the truth about
THOSE WHO WATCH - about the alien beings who came into this world in a crash landing from the stars.

ROBERT SILVERBERG is the author of the highly-acclaimed science-fiction novels Time of the Great Freeze, Needle in a Timestack, Re-called to Life, Regan's Planet, and Master of Life and Death.  The author is a native New Yorker and was educated at Columbia University.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
