The Sound of Creation by Gabriella Zielke is a beautiful science-fiction tale with a touch of romance.

Ava Lawson is the CEO of Sense Labs. She creates a piece that will change the world — her invention holds a power no one and nothing else holds. Her chief operations officer turns on her and tries to use secrets from her past to overthrow her and take hold of her invention. During this period, she meets Zek, a being from another realm. Zek is on Earth to understand the change his creation is undergoing. He wants to decide whether to save or destroy it. This changes everything for Ava.

Ava eventually realizes her invention holds more power and serves more purpose than she thinks. While learning more about her invention, childhood history, and existence, can she help Zek bring everything to equilibrium? Can she save her company, or does everything overwhelm her to failure?

The Sound of Creation is clearly a science-fiction book, considering its terms and scenarios. This is a beautiful feature, as avid sci-fi lovers will completely revel and get lost in the book's plot. However, people who aren't intense sci-fi lovers will find it difficult to understand scientific terms in the book. These terms include dimensions, the creation of worlds, the game built by Rhonda, and many more. Readers must have at least basic science knowledge to understand the story entirely. The explanations in the narration are filled with science and physics-related phenomena.

While focusing the book on its narrative, Gabriella Zielke carefully projected the chemistry between Ava and Zek. This feature would make non-lovers of sci-fi attracted to the book. While the scientific parts might bore them out, the unknown growing chemistry between the two characters would keep them going to the end.

The book portrays acts of undying loyalty from the characters. Some of Ava's staff show this. This is a huge moral lesson to be learned by readers. Loyalty has degenerated to the point where only those who can pay the highest monetary price can afford it. It's good to know that this book teaches loyalty earned by making people believe in something bigger than them.

The Sound of Creation is a good read. Regardless of the scientific jargon readers may encounter, it will make an exciting read for just about anyone. However, I specifically recommend it to persons who are deep lovers of sci-fi stories. People with a strong aversion to books with scientific terminologies will not enjoy this book. Although there are two errors, The Sound of Creation seems professionally edited. With no serious negative thing to say, I rate it five out of five stars.

When science fiction is diluted with romance, it makes for a fantastic read. Your review was insightful and makes the book appealing.

Am currently reading this. Can't wait to immerse myself in its pages. I wonder how music can be used as a weapon.

I agree that only deep sci-fi lovers will enjoy this book. The narrative is difficult for readers who love another genre. I found some of the terminologies difficult too. I recommend it to anyone who loves sci-fi and AI lovers. Nice review!
