The Sound of Stars
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 worlds 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 Ellies illegal library, hes duty-bound to deliver her for execution. But Morris isnt a typical Ilori and Ellie and her books might be the key to a desperate rebellion of his own.
