Janus Silang and the creature of Tábon. Volume one / Edgar Calabia Samar ; adapted by Carljoe Javier & Mervin Malonzo ; illustrated by Natasha Ringor & Mervin Malonzo.
"Monsters live in the darkest corners of our dreams, existing only as nightmares, but sometimes they find a way out. When dreams and the waking world collide, how can we know what is real? Janus Silang and the Creature of Tabon tells the chilling tale of one boy's courageous actions in this shadowy world and his struggle to overcome a growing evil. During an online tournament at a local internet café, all the players fall dead, except for Janus. The horror deepens as the deaths multiply and Janus is contacted by a stranger, a survivor of the tournaments like himself, who asks to help solve the mystery. Along the way, Janus discovers a hidden truth in the game he has been playing and its connection with a nightmarish creature from ancient caves at Tábon which threatens to destroy everything he holds dear. Adapted from the Philippine National Book Award-winning novel, Janus Silang and the Creature of Tábon takes the reader on a journey of discovery as Janus learns the truth about the hidden world of mythical creatures who surround us and how he and his family are connected to this magical realm"--Back cover.
