The Wolf and The Moon Seeker
They told him that he was destined for greatness.
He told them they were delusional.
At fourteen, Mateo Reyes considered himself the champion of nobodies in his small pathetic nowhere town. The proof was everywhere. His principal thinks that he’ll never amount to anything. His mom couldn’t care less if he’s home or not, and the string of bullies that torment him is a never-ending cycle. His whole world is covered in a dark cloud of misery.
But his life takes a crazy, twisted turn when three League Warriors show up one night, saving him from the bullies and rescuing him from the evil forces coming for him. The Dark Order. Not wanting any part of the League, Mateo wants to do what he does best. Run. But when the warriors expose their mystical spirit animals, he can’t deny the longing in his own soul for the white wolf that invades his dreams, night after night.
They tell him that he’s one of the most feared warriors in the League, but with no memory of his true identity, how can he truly believe anything they have to say? How is he supposed to find the courage to embark on a journey destined for a hero, when the voices in his life remind him that he’s unwanted in the world?
But the only voice that truly matters is hers. The moon. She says it’s time to trust.
And she’s never wrong!
From the author of the The Wild Animal Kids Club, comes an all-new middle grade fantasy filled with action, friendship and adventure. A coming-of-age journey which portrays the majestic beauty of spirit animals and their extraordinary bond with the characters in the story is perfect for all ages to enjoy a fast-paced plot and action packed scenes.

Mateo Reyes is just a neglected 14-year-old, unloved and unliked. Growing up with an alcoholic mother and getting ridiculed by bullies isn’t his idea of a great life. So, when some strange warrior kids his age pop up out of nowhere and tell him that he is actually extremely special, he eventually falls for it. Mateo actually belongs to a secretive order called the League, and his memory has been wiped and replaced. He always knew it was weird that he had a unique birthmark and could talk to the moon, but now it all makes sense. Everyone in this League has a special animal bond, but many of their animals have been nabbed and turned into demonic beasts. Now Mateo needs to find his wolf—Ghost—and help rescue others captured by the Dark Order.
The writing in “The Wolf and the Moon Seeker,” book 1 in the League Warriors Series, is very fast-paced. Author Stephanie Teer focuses much more on letting characters’ actions speak for themselves rather than their appearances. It isn’t a heavy teen book with lusty or graphic elements, which gives it a very wholesome feel, making it appropriate for teens and tweens. There is a little violence, but it’s very light.
The story is very creative and original. Everyone has heard of fictional characters turning into animals (werewolves, etc.), but Stephanie Teer has created a different concept. Members of the League have animals that they bond with and call into themselves, or release from themselves at will. The pace, content, and direction of the story have a lot of image/visual appeal; it would make a great animated series.
The well-developed character traits of Mateo’s new friends also add a little spice to the novel, as do Mateo’s teenage attitude and wit. For example, Mateo comments to the reader after his friend slaps him on the arm and calls him a baby:
Did I mention how annoying she is?
Overall, this is a unique book that perfectly fits the description of adventure fantasy. It’s fast-paced and not very long in length—perfect for book lovers who like to read slowly. It prioritizes characters and concepts over settings and small details, which is ideal for its target audience. Stephanie Teer is an author to look out for, as is her book, “The Wolf and the Moon Seeker.”

Love the characters and the definite play of light and dark. Good vs. Evil. I would love to see how these characters evolve.
