How to train a Filipino dragon and other real-life accounts of three modern monster hunters!
Since The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo was published, other creature hunters have come out of the woodwork to share their spine-tingling accounts of more discoveries. True? Exaggerated? Out-and-out lies? Read on and decide for yourself!
The Black Bestiary adds to the list of powerful and fearsome supernatural creatures we met in The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo. Three modern creature hunters—RJ, Gus and Stanislav, who draw their inspiration from Pardo's work—relate their own chilling encounters with the sinister monsters that live among us.
In this book, you'll come face-to-face with a pantheon of Filipino beasts, such as:
The Bungisngis: You've heard of the Cyclops; this is a Cyclops on steroids!
The Tahamaling: Never hunt in the forest without permission from these maidens!
The Tiktik: Part avian, part human, part something else. These terrifying creatures feed on the unborn.
And many more creatures of horrifying aspect and predilection!
The Black Bestiary is a lively romp through the world of the imagination, as well as a great way to learn more about Asian folklore, magic and myth.
