Thanks, Emir! I don't know the exact release date in the Philippines, but I'm hoping that it will come soon after the North American launch. I'll keep you posted. Right now, it's already available for pre-order (hardcover and kindle) on Amazon. Hehe. ;-)

Hi Sam, thanks for letting us know about your debut novel. Good luck! Keep us posted once it is available locally or if they are already selling second-hand in Amazon ha ha. I love second-hand books! :)

Hi. I'm Jeric. The first book I read was "Peter Pan", when I was 5. My mum guided me through it. Since then, I've had a book at hand all the time. My favorite book is "Night" by Elie Wiesel. No book captures human suffering in such fluidity better.
