Sol Madariaga returns to narrate this second volume in the Wolves of No World series. An illegal half-human, half-Septimus hybrid and the first ever LOBIZONA has escaped from their magical school with some friends. They are on the run from the cazadores, the magical police of the Argentinian-American world of brujas (witches) and lobizones (werewolves). Madariaga blends Spanish and English smoothly as the plot progresses, immersing listeners in the natural speech of bilingual communities. Characters and interactions are not as cohesive as in the first book, and the romance feels a little stunted, but the world-building in this sequel is just as fascinating as the first volume’s.

From the Publisher
"In this effervescent sequel full of magic and beautiful imagery, Manu learns to reclaim her own narrative and, together with her lovable found family... stake out a place in the world where she belongs...An inspiring, powerful tale of belonging." —KIRKUS, starred review
"Sure to fire up readers and make them feel ready to rebel against the cages society places around us. This is a triumph." —BOOKLIST, starred review
"These gripping and magical books combine Argentine folklore with themes of identity and the morality of deciding who is and isn’t illegal.” —BUZZFEED
“When I reviewed Lobizona in 2020 I said that Romina Garber was poised to become a strong literary voice of this era. After reading Cazadora, I’m even more confident in my belief of that. Garber’s ability to unflinchingly address modern day topics and weave them into fantastical tales is unparalleled. I look forward to not only more from the Wolves of No World series, but anything Garber puts to page.” —THE NERD DAILY
"Cazadora is one of the rare second-in-a-series books to not only live up to the first book but surpass it. It has all the heart and soul of Lobizona, but with fresh coats of anger and revolution layered on top." —TOR.COM

★ 2021-06-01
The follow-up to Lobizona (2020) sees its protagonist’s fight for equality and acceptance reach new heights.
After the events of the first book, Manu and her friends flee their magical school and are on the run to avoid the Cazadores who aim to capture anyone who doesn’t conform to the stringent gender binary laws of their world. Manu, as the first ever known female werewolf and a Septimus/human hybrid to boot, could lose her life if she’s discovered. Illegal in both worlds, Manu’s only chance is to find the Coven, a legendary underground movement of outcasts who she hopes will welcome them with open arms. Once she meets the people of the Coven, Manu encounters a world full of Septimus who are willing to risk anything for change. But how far is Manu willing to go? In this effervescent sequel full of magic and beautiful imagery, Manu learns to reclaim her own narrative and, together with her lovable found family, including misfits Saysa and Cata as well as boyfriend Tiago, stake out a place in the world where she belongs. Refreshingly, Manu and her friends are not presented as uniquely positioned to change the world: They join a multigenerational, ongoing fight against oppression that aims to give voice to the nonconforming voiceless. All characters are Argentine, with a variety of skin tones, gender identities, and sexualities.
An inspiring, powerful tale of belonging. (Paranormal. 14-18)
