About the Book:
El Filibusterismo (The Reign of Greed) is the gripping sequel to Jose Rizal’s acclaimed novel, Noli Me Tangere. This pivotal work in Filipino literature was written by Rizal while he was in Brussels, Belgium, beginning in June 1890 and completed a year later despite numerous interruptions. The novel was printed in Ghent, overcoming financial difficulties, and finally published on September 18, 1891.
The Spanish authorities in the Philippines, particularly the friars, regarded El Filibusterismo as highly subversive, just like its predecessor. Upon returning to the Philippines, Rizal was arrested, exiled to Dapitan on July 15, 1892, and executed on December 30, 1896, for his alleged involvement in the Philippine Revolution. Today, his novels are celebrated for their sharp critique of colonial and feudal society and their exemplary blend of creative and realistic writing with political aspirations.

Our baby is about to start solids and this is the perfect board book to introduce Tagalog adjectives for flavor to her! The illustrations are so cute!

It’s a short book but the story has you wanting to keep reading. The characters are well written and the story is easy to follow. Can’t wait for more to come out.

We love this bag! The fabric is sturdy, the design is clean, and it can hold more than 15 picture books!

Fantastic book! A must read. If you love comics and Filipino literature, this belongs in your bookshelf.

The first two and the very last story didn't really do anything for me, but I liked everything else. My favorites were Cosplaya' Hata' and Present. One is about a cosplayer who runs into his former bully, and the other is about two coworkers talking and reminiscing while outside a Christmas party. It's really great to see these moments in the characters' lives, and to see what the creators were able to accomplish within so few pages.
