"This debut has it all: music, books, aliens, adventure,
resistance, queerness, and a bold heroine tying it all together.
"--Ms. Magazine Can a girl who risks her life for books and an
Ilori who loves pop music work together to save humanity? When a
rebel librarian meets an Ilori commander... Two years ago, a
misunderstanding between the leaders of Earth and the invading
Ilori resulted in the death of one-third of the world's population.
Today, seventeen-year-old Ellie Baker survives in an
Ilori-controlled center in New York City. All art, books and
creative expression are illegal, but Ellie breaks the rules by
keeping a secret library. When young Ilori commander Morris finds
Ellie's illegal library, he's duty-bound to deliver her for
execution. But Morris isn't a typical Ilori...and Ellie and her
books might be the key to a desperate rebellion of his own. "The
Sound of Stars is a marvelous genre-bending debut." --The Nerd
Daily "The Sound of Stars is a stunning exploration of the comforts
that make us human and the horrors that challenge our
humanity."--K. Ancrum, author of The Wicker King "This book has
everything! Aliens set on conquering earth! A determined heroine
with a hidden stash of books! And the power of music and stories to
give those with every reason to hate the power to love. Who could
want anything more?"--Joelle Charbonneau, New York Times
bestselling author of The Testing and Verify "An absolute must-read
for everyone." --Book Riot "Dow's debut is a testament to hope and
the power of art." --Buzzfeed Also by Alechia Dow: The Kindred
