More DescriptionA 20-something man wakes up without memory and finds himself in a nation that administers a Watched List of its own citizens. He meets people who accept invasive surveillance by the government and forced uniformity by the church as necessary safeguards for protecting the homeland. The amnesiac learns quickly that opposition is heresy ”and punishable by death.WE, THE WATCHED is a dystopian novel by Adam Bender about what happens when one man forgets the propaganda. He makes strides toward getting his life back together, but the fresh perspective granted by his rebirth soon proves to be more a curse than a gift."There's action, romance, and social commentary woven into a brilliant story with an amazing plot twist near the end," writes David Broughton in the American Chronicle.

The writing is nearly on par with these geniuses of the written word."
