Publisher's Synopsis
What happens when the strings that bind us snap?
In a world where appearances reign supreme and conformity is survival, the Tower of Wisdom stands as a monument to control-a crumbling facade of authority upheld by fear, compliance, and illusion. At its heart, the Flame, once a beacon of purpose and unity, flickers weakly, smothered by the very Overseers sworn to protect it.
Elias, a Keeper disillusioned with the Tower's decay, dares to question the strings that hold it all together. In his search for truth, he discovers the forgotten origins of the Flame and begins to unravel the lies that have kept the Tower in power for generations. With the help of unexpected allies, Elias ignites a rebellion-not just against the Overseers, but against the apathy and silence that have bound them all.
But rebellion comes at a cost. As the strings break and the masks crack, the Tower's foundation begins to tremble. The Overseers will not relinquish control without a fight, and the Flame, once reignited, proves as dangerous as it is transformative.
When the Puppets Break Their Strings is a searing critique of broken systems, a story of resistance, and a call to action. Blending rich symbolism with a compelling narrative, it challenges readers to confront the illusions of power and the fragility of truth. Thought-provoking, unsettling, and deeply relevant, this book asks one vital question:
Will you let the strings hold you-or will you dare to break free?
