Moymoy Lulumboy Book 5 Launch

What happens when you make a promise and realize that to keep your promise, you would need to hurt the people you love the most? Do you keep your word or do you choose the people you love?


Lampara Books' epic fantasy series Moymoy Lulumboy returns with its fifth book. Dubbed Moymoy Lulumboy: Ang Lihim Ng Libro, the adolescent novel takes readers to the enchanting world of Gabun where local mythological creatures like aswang, duwende, manananggal, kapre, and tikbalang co-exist with each other and fight for communal peace.
The latest installment continues with the journey of Moymoy Lulumboy as he struggles to cope up with the death of his mother Liliw and contend with his legacy as the hero that will save Gabun from evil forces. Moymoy Lulumboy, whose shape-shifting powers resemble that of an aswang, is slowly transforming into a character with a little darkness and aggression in his soul, but whose kindness and compassion remain throughout the coming-of-age conquest.

The Young Adult series has received glowing reviews from book critics and readers, with Philippine Daily Inquirer including it in the top 10 books of 2014 and praising its "solid efforts at further modernizing our own myths." Interaksyon's Romsanne Ortiguero also raved about the franchise, particularly the fourth installment, Moymoy Lulumboy: Mga Dulot ng Digmaan for taking the audience into a "gripping reading experience as new characters and challenges were introduced."


On the latest installment of Moymoy Lulumboy, he collaborates with Jomike Tehido-- a prolific architect, author, illustrator, and painter whose compelling fusion of unorthodox styles has led to solo exhibitions in the Philippines, Singapore, France, Japan and United States.

Moymoy Lulumboy: Ang Lihim Ng Libro is available on Precious Pages retail outlets, National Book Store, Pandayan book shop and leading books stores nationwide. For inquiries you may contact, inquiry@lamparabooks.com.ph.
