Seventeen-year-old Zac Palmer has been living an isolated life for the better part of the last two years in a remote lab alongside his friendly companion AI, James. However, an increasingly chaotic chain of events in quick succession brings him into contact with the teenage daughter of Chinese President Elli Chang and her alien friend Mala-Am. The trio must now team up with the President of the United States, Terence Francis Mitchell, and stop the Artificial General Intelligence system Lord Master and his allies from executing their nefarious plans. But to do so, they will have to rely on the wisdom of the Three Symmetry Heroes of Modern Science and find the missing part of the puzzle to access the information about symmetry's core role in nature. Will they be successful? Find out with Einstein Super Code by George Hohbach.

Apart from being a delightful action-adventure tale, Einstein Super Code also contains two catchy songs with lyrics and sheet music and, most importantly, background information on Einstein's scientific discoveries regarding symmetry's core role in nature and other much-needed symmetric eco-friendly concepts. In the first part of the book, George Hohbach emphasizes the importance of harmony between nature and humans through a charming sci-fi comedy adventure tale that young readers can immerse themselves in. The character interactions and dialogue set the pace of the narrative and keep the reader engaged. The illustrations in the second half of the book go a long way to making the content accessible and easy to understand. Overall, an educational book that also entertains.

Einstein Superstar Code by George Hohbach is a truly entertaining sci-fi tale--the kind that you can identify as having the right dose of science that blends well with its fiction. Zac, James, Elli, Mala-Am, and the US president find themselves fighting an evil Artificial General Intelligence that has taken control of the planet. In order not to be consumed by the dark power of the AGI control mastermind, they must operate within rational and analytical parameters. Albert Einstein was convinced that Nature could be understood as an amazing, simple mathematical structure in which symmetry has become his guiding principle. Einstein’s core findings on Symmetry will put the AGI Lord Master and his entire AI league back into their natural place and in harmony with humanity.

George Hohbach manages to put hardcore science into fiction in a manner that doesn’t confuse the non-science savvy among us. It has the kind of narrative that melts your cynicism away and strengthens your faith in scientific ideas as key to man’s harmonious relationship with nature and the universe. The illustrated diagrams help by reinforcing ideas about the heroes of symmetry. It is a truly entertaining tale, one that has an evergreen appeal. In fact, Einstein Superstar Code is more than just science fiction. It has dystopian overtones that examine the ramifications of our relationship with artificial intelligence and what could go wrong--a cautionary tale if you may. Hohbach delivers the narrative with the confidence of a writer who knows his research and characters. This story is a blast, and I highly recommend it to all sci-fi lovers who love a strong element of science in their fiction.
