Book excerpt: Mythology meets New Millennium Welcome to the Philippines, where creatures from the mists of myth walk on the seashores streets of the 7,107 islands of this archipelago. They will eat you and ask for seconds (and thirds, with lechon sauce). Six tales weave monsters into the fabric of a crime scene on an island paradise, through Manila's underbelly, into the kill zone of Tirad Pass, out into isles of dispute and out into the world where Filipino migrant workers earn their keep as the new heroes of a country still struggling to become the pearl it has long been called, and into the walking nightmare of a zombie apocalypse. Welcome to the monster heart of the Pinoy soul. Come, walk the night with me.
