Pinoy Amazing Adventures

What if there were realities existing beyond what we can imagine of our present situation, like tracking a felon through dreams; Mekas guarding the Mariquina river; a telephone service that lets us see the future and change the present? What if Mt Banahaw were really guarding a secret?
Here comes another PSICOM offering sure to give you reading pleasure. This book is speculative fiction, spinning from the present and imagined in the future. Flip through the pages and let us take you to some place called imagination.

Loyola High: Freshman Diaries

Si Lance ang campus heartthrob na nagpapakahusay para sa perpeksiyunistang pamilya. Si Severino ang geek na pilit iniiwasan ang mga kaklaseng bully at walang alam. Si Wendell ang class president na unti-unting tinutuklas ang dahilan ng paglisan ng ama. Si Mayumi, one of the boys na itinatago ang tunay na nararamdaman.
Sila ang mga tauhan sa biyaheng pamilyar sa iyo: sa mga kuwento ng pagbibinata at pagdadalaga: sa mga classmate na may putok o maitim ang batok: mga sipsip o iyakin. Samahan mo sila sa pagtuklas nila sa kanilang sarili, sa kanilang unang danas ng pakikipagkilala, paghanga, pakikipagtalo't pakikipagkaibigan. Ang buhay high school ay isang 'di makakalimutang biyahe. Samahan ang FRESHIES sa kanilang pagsisimula.

City Lights

Fantasies in transit, brief walkthroughs for the contemporary commuter, random reviews of ManileƱo rooms, portraits and landscapes of urban loneliness and more: memoir, fiction, and reportage collide in a sixteen-car pile-up of short piece urban narratives in the first volume of City Lights: Metro Manila.
