This is the first time that I attended Manila International Book Fair and was able to catch the launch of
Segundo Matias Jr's fourth book of
Moymoy Lulumboy. Though I've been seeing the series before, this is also the first time that I actually bought copies for my own. I need to start from Book 1 - Ang Batang Aswang and continue to the latest release, "Dulot ng Digmaan."

Checking out this new world of mythical creatures and epic adventures with Moymoy Lulumboy, now he's age 14. And during the launch, we were given a special show by the thespians of PETA where they gave a preview of what's in store of the book.
This series feature our local creatures -- from
manananggal, tikbalang and likes to new additions by Segundo Matias Jr. Derived from his own creativity and matched with Jomike Tejido's exquisite illustrations, we are immersed in Moymoy's adventure in the magical realm of Gabun. Introduce this book to your children and support our local fictions and myth writers.
Segundo Matias Jr. also dedicates this book to his mentor, renowned writer, Ricky Lee, who was also present during the launch.
Moymoy Lulumboy: Ang Dulot ng Digmaan is available in leading bookstores through Lampara Books Publishing.
