The Watcher Chronicles is a four-book companion series to S.J. West’s The Watchers, with all four books published in 2013. Broken, Kindred, Oblivion, and Ascension shift the focus to different characters within the Watchers world, exploring their stories and romantic arcs in greater depth than the main series allowed.

West released these books alongside The Watchers, and together the two series form the core of her supernatural universe. The Watcher Chronicles tends to be darker and more emotionally intense, with the characters facing personal demons alongside the literal ones. If you have read The Watchers and want to stay in that world, The Watcher Chronicles is the natural follow-up, filling in gaps and giving favorite side characters their own time in the spotlight.
