Came out of the closet by accident? Check.
Sent off to a pray-away-the-gay school? Miserable check.
Shenanigans ensued? Mega-quadruple check.
Blaize Trales's world falls apart when he's dragged to Sanctuary Preparatory Academy, a boarding school that claims to fix gay teens. The place sucks so much they even serve food like "Cleansing Corn." Blaize's misguided parents eat it up and hand him over for brainwashing.
But things at Sanctuary aren't what they appear. Blaize soon discovers the school's antics are all a lie. They're also at war with an ancient enemy. Between surviving bullies, rescuing students from mysterious attacks, and passing algebra, Blaize's life is going to get out-of-control crazy.
And freaking dangerous.
Lucky for Blaize, he wields the ultimate weapon: being gay. And he's pretty good at it.
