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
