Publisher's summary

Kilix awakens to a world that he doesn't recognize. The A.I. have taken over much of the frontier and seek total control.

When Kilix learns of the somber news, he decides to leave with Loren's grandfather, Dan, to get supplies. Hitting a snag in their plans launches them on a journey of no turning back. The world will never be the same.

The fight between man and machines goes on and on!

What did you love best about Solex?

What I liked best about Solex was that man started to gain back his place on earth against the machines. And that Kilix was in a leader ship role and fighting the AI and winning.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Kilix was my favorite character because we have followed his growth from a high school student to the leader of the resistance to the machines.

What does Joshua Bennington bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

.. He not only gives the characters a presence but gives the story a tone that I would never get from a printed book..

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

.

Any additional comments?

This was the best of the three books and I loved it!!

THE WORLD IS IN CHAOS FROM THE AI

If you could sum up Solex in three words, what would they be?

KILIX MATURES

What other book might you compare Solex to and why?

This is the last of three books about a boy coming of age to lead the humans that remain against the AI who have taken over the world again.

What about Joshua Bennington’s performance did you like?

Joshua Bennington is a gifted narrator and brings a lot of life to the characters in these three books.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This book keeps your attention and was hard to turn off.

Any additional comments?

The three books together make a wonderful story of a boy coming of age in the future. It was realy the story of humans against the AI. I would recommend the three books. They were very enjoyable.

WOW THE THIRD BOOK WAS EVEN BETTER

What did you love best about Solex?

Kilix has matured and is now the leader of the human resistance against the AI.

What other book might you compare Solex to and why?

The Matrix

What about Joshua Bennington’s performance did you like?

Joshua Bennington's performance was great as it was in the other two books. Tells a good story!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

My reaction to the book was is there going to be another? Where does Kilix go from here? Will be get back with Lauren? Hope there is another!

Any additional comments?

In this third book, Kilix grows up to find his place in the battle with the AI and he takes them on directly and wins. Humans will still need to recover from the AI's devastation of towns and cites. This book was written with a lot of action and brings a lot of unanswered questions to rest. The narrator did another entertaining job I would recommend it as I loved it!

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCES TAKE OVER THE WORLD

Would you consider the audio edition of Solex to be better than the print version?

I use the audio books so I can be doing something with my hands at the same time I am entertained by a book. I have given up reading books because the audio books are to much easier for me. There fore I can not compare the printed version with this audio version. I did like this audio book a great deal.

What does Joshua Bennington bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Joshua Bennington brings a voice to the characters. In this series I found the voice of Peter to be most captivating and charming of Mr. Benningtons voices.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

This three book series would made a wonderful movie. It reminds me of the Matrix where the humans also lost to the AI.

THE WAR BETWEEN HUMANS AND THE COMPUTERS

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I have recommended this book and the other two books to my friends. This final (may be or may not book) was Mr. Chapin's best!

Which scene was your favorite?

The best scene was when Kilix takes on the head of the AI directly. It shows how Kilix has matured through the other two books leading up this confrontation.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely, it was hard to put down this last book.

Any additional comments?

THAT WAS GREAT! I LOVED IT!

ARTIFICUAL INTELIGENCE TREY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD

Would you listen to Solex again? Why?

yes it was hard to put down, and at this point I might want to hear all three books in a row.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Kilix was my favorite character because All three books were about him. We get to see him develop into the word's leader.

What about Joshua Bennington’s performance did you like?

The narrator made the characters more real

Any additional comments?

This was the best of the three books and answers a lot of questions. I recommend you read the first two books first.
