Leo Caraway, president of the Young Republicans club, future Harvard student, has his life all mapped out. That is, until he discovers his biological father is the notorious King Maggot, the lead singer of Purge, the most popular and destructive punk rock band in history.Not only is Leo not a punk rock fan, but he believes the Maggot blood in his veins is a dangerous time bomb just waiting to explode. And sure enough it does-when Leo stubbornly defends the unlikeliest of people, thereby getting himself falsely accused of cheating on a test.Because of the blemish on his record, the once-star pupil finds his scholarship to Harvard taken away. So he accepts a job as a roadie with Purges summer revival tour, all the while secretly hoping to convince Maggot to pay for his tuition. But life on the road is even crazier than Leo bargained for, and before the summer is out, he will finally discover the surprising truth about his dad, his friends, and most important, himself.* This one . . . has the goods to go platinum. -Publishers Weekly, starred reviewLaugh-out-loud funny, honest, hot and sweet. -Kirkus ReviewsAbout the Author:Gordon Korman has written more than eighty novels for young adult and middle-grade readers, including Schooled; The Juvie Three; No More Dead Dogs; The 6th Grade Nickname Game; Son of the Mob; and Jake, Reinvented.
