9798988315100: Blaze Union and the Puddin' Head Schools

Synopsis

Puddin’ Heads tried to expel her.
Blaze Union decided the only reasonable response was to take over the nation’s school system.

Welcome to Island Nation Schools—where questioning authority is forbidden, loyalty is measured by spoon allegiance, and the culture wars have gone completely off the rails.

When 14-year-old Blaze Union is expelled for the unthinkable crime of playing guitar and soccer with hands deemed “too large” by MegaCorp standards, she doesn’t argue her case.

She organizes.

With the help of a sarcastic teacher and a growing band of misfits, Blaze launches a wild campaign to become boss of Island Nation Schools. What begins as a botched prank spirals into chaos as rival factions form, propaganda spreads, and schools transform into ideological battlegrounds.

As Blaze’s movement grows, it draws the attention of the Supreme Prime Minister himself—a man whose obsession with tiny hands is rivaled only by his appetite for flattery, power, and division.

Is Blaze leading a revolution—or igniting something she can’t control?

Blaze Union and the Puddin’ Head Schools is a sharp, fast-paced satire for adult and YA-crossover readers who enjoy absurdist takes on education, power, and the fine art of deciding who qualifies—where nonsensical policies are enforced with absolute confidence, everyday symbols somehow divide nations, and common sense becomes an act of rebellion.
