Miguel Azral has always longed for a sense of belonging and for someone to love him. As a lonely teenager shunned for being different, he finds solace in the belief that he’s destined for something greater. When a mysterious space wizard named Prometheus reveals Miguel’s heritage as the son of the Aswang King and the Diwata Queen, his ordinary life shatters, thrusting him into a brutal world of monsters, myths, and magic. Bizarrely, the wizard is his own alter, along with his brutal flame-wielding vigilante sidekick.

Plunged into a brutal, shadowed world where ancient creatures, gods, devils, monsters, and other Eldritch unknowns stalk the night and legends hold deadly truths, Miguel must confront his destiny as the Prince of the Aswangs. Under the harsh tutelage of Prometheus, a bitter and enigmatic wizard, and the fearsome Reaper, he trains to master the Usog Arts and harness his monstrous heritage. But Miguel soon discovers that power comes at a cost—and the line between savior and destroyer grows ever thinner.

As he faces betrayal, moral dilemmas, and the haunting legacy of his father, Miguel must decide: Will he rise as a savior to the people who broke his heart, or will his thirst for power consume him and the world he’s meant to protect?

Blood of the Aswangs is a dark fantasy saga of ancient monsters, multiversal stakes, and one boy’s struggle to claim his place in a brutal, unrelenting world. For fans of mythological epics, morally complex heroes, and rich, atmospheric lore.

This book is dedicated to the Lord our God, my family, my friends who stayed or left regardless, my dear grandparents, my dear parents, my dear aunts, my uncles, my dearest brother, and the Filipino people.

Mind you, this series may be immature at first, but its story, themes, and even its power system focus on the highs and lows of the Filipino family, faith, culture, and people, brought into fantastical settings. This series, in the end, showcases a fantastical version of my experiences in the form of allegory. This book is not meant to be read far too closely to my own life, but some of my life story bleeds into this book. It also explores references to various comics, Shounen, movies, shows, and Manga I’ve read and watched before, making this my ultimate passion.

Fun Little Fact: This series started as a parody of MHA, MCU Phase 4 and the Multiverse Saga, the DCEU, and Dragon Ball, but eventually became its own thing.Miguel is very much a parody of Spider-Man/Son Goku. The Reaper is a parody of Batman and Wolverine. And finally, Prometheus is a parody of Doctor Strange and Deadpool.
