Kalambu. Segunda partida / Kalambu. Second Round

Bienvenido a Kalambu: has respondido a la llamada.
Muchos jugadores piensan que su partida será la última.

Tienen razón.

Es la última para ellos.

Nunca para mí.

Siempre habrá otra partida.

Cosmo, Savannah, Greta y Nomeolvides han sobrevivido a la primera partida de Kalambu. Pero cuando creían que iban a poder olvidar una pesadilla que preferirían no haber vivido, alguien encuentra el pokepet de Gato... y la reinicia de nuevo.
 
La quinta jugadora es Mochi, tiene casi seis años y no está preparada para participar en un juego tan brutal.
 
Nadie quiere volver a Kalambu.
 
Pero si pretenden que Mochi sobreviva, van a tener que hacerlo. Y no les quedará más remedio que colaborar.
 
Esta vez no importa quién gane, porque el objetivo es común: salir con vida del juego y desear que la suya sea la última partida... para siempre.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Welcome to Kalambu: you have answered the call.
Many players think their game will be the last one.

They're right.

It's the last one for them.

Never for me.

There will always be another game for me.
 
Cosmo, Savannah, Greta, and Nomeolvides have survived the first game of Kalambu. But just when they thought they’d be able to forget a nightmare they would rather not have lived at all, someone finds Gato's pokepet... and restarts it all over again.
 
The fifth player is Mochi, she's almost six years old and she's not prepared to take part in such a brutal and fierce game.
 
No one wants to return to Kalambu.
 
But if they expect Mochi to survive, they will have to. And they'll have no choice but to cooperate and take part.
 
This time it doesn't matter who wins, because the goal is a common one: to survive the game and hope theirs is the last game... forever.
Bruno Puelles es escritor y dramaturgo. Algunos de sus libros están dirigidos a jóvenes, como Las tres despedidas de Georg Kahn o La ciudad de los mil ojos (Premio Kelvin 505 a Mejor novela juvenil en castellano 2023). Otros a adultos, como Simbiosis (finalista al Premio Minotauro 2020). Entre las historias que escribe para niños, se encuentran El ciclo de vida de la mariposa nocturna (Premio Ignotus a Mejor libro infantil y juvenil 2022) y la serie Kalambu.
