Publisher's summary

"The darkest night gives birth to the brightest dawn.”

Birds of Prey (Mga Ibong Mandaragit) is a story of the valiant fight for justice and social change during and after the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in World War II.

Originally written in Tagalog by revered Philippine National Artist in Literature Amado V. Hernandez, and translated to English by Estelita Constantino-Pangilinan, this socio-political novel depicts the oppression of the Filipino people by both the brutal occupiers and their own corrupt leaders, while holding out hope for a vision of an egalitarian society.

Inspired by Jose Rizal’s novels, it is a sequel to El Filibusterismo. Birds of Prey follows Mando Plaridel, the guerrilla warrior who discovers his strength and greater purpose as he searches for and finds the treasure left behind by Rizal’s protagonist Simoun.

This historical fiction examines one country’s past but its message resonates with the real and present struggles in societies around the world.
