“The lush backdrop, infused with Philippine folklore, sets this fantasy series with a racially diverse cast apart.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Brings much needed representation to the genre.”—School Library Journal
Stalking the night, sinking sharp teeth into its prey, a creature with vampiric bloodthirst terrorizes the kingdom. Manananggal, they call it. And as the newly crowned queen, MJ Robertson-Rodriguez must end the carnage. Except, when MJ wakes up in tattered clothes stained with blood, she quickly realizes the monster lives within her.
Puzzling over how to prevent more destruction, MJ flees to Mount Makiling with select members of her court, all while keeping her curse secret. By her side is Lucas, the talented knight who broke her heart by giving his own to another. And there’s Prince Qian, the devilishly handsome monster hunter from Jade Mountain who’s visiting on a diplomatic mission.
In the mountains, Prince Qian charms MJ. But she can’t deny her heart still beats for her beautiful knight. And as the manananggal tightens its grip on MJ, tainting her every thought with rage, a neighboring kingdom threatens to wage war on Biringan. Now the young queen must regain control of herself if she’s to keep control of the crown.
