"MONSTERS ARE MYTHS. ALIENS ARE FICTION.

That's what young Ambrosio believes, not his crazy Lola's stories about robot-riding Nuno, and Kapres from space. But now she's dead, and Ambrosio's about to learn that she wasn't so crazy after all...

EVERY STORY HAS ITS OWN TRUTH.

Mythspace vol. 1 is a collection of six stories, each exploring a shared universe where Philippine folklore creatures -- Tikbalangs, Kapres, Manananggals -- were inspired by alien civilizations. Each creature is re-imagined and used to populate a science fiction universe that is rooted in Philippine oral tradition.

From Ambrosio's journey to a Kapre war to a Manananggal coming of age, Mythspace will take you on a journey both strange and familiar."--
