In the book, Solaris Seethes, readers find themselves on a dangerous hunt to find six crystals. One of the crystals has been stolen from the main character's, Rynah, planet. The book is written in third person omniscient, which means there is a narrator telling the story. In this case, the narrator knows all of the thoughts and emotions of all the characters.

Solaris Seethes does have one vulgar word in it, which is used five times throughout the book. The first time it is used is in the first chapter, page 8 in the kindle e-book.

The character development throughout the book was outstanding. The author did such a great job creating personalities for the characters that by the end of the book I felt I knew each one personally. Each character had different qualities that made them more independent from each other, thus making them more realistic.

This book is not boring exactly, but it is predictable and does not build enough suspense. For example, there is one point in Solaris Seethes when Rynah finds a file with her name on it. She clicks on it and it immediately gives her clues to finding the crystals. Instead of building suspense, it is a little dull and unexciting even though it was supposed to be a pivotal moment.

I would recommend this book to children ages 8-12. Overall, the book was easy to read, enjoyable, and holds the reader's attention with adventures and battles. Solaris Seethes rates 2 out of 4 points.
