About the Event
Dive into the world of Monstress as Fully Booked brings New York Times bestselling and award-winning writer, Marjorie Liu to Manila from February 8-10, 2019.
Her original, creator owned-comic book series Monstress, is set in an alternate, matriarchal 1920’s Asia and follows a girl’s struggle to survive the trauma of war. With a cast of girls and monsters, set against a richly imagined aesthetic of art deco-inflected steam punk, Monstress #1 debuted to critical praise. With a long list of accolades for the Monstress series, Marjorie has recently won the title of Best Writer in the 2018 Eisner Awards – the ever first female to have this distinction.
There will be three (3) legs for the Monstress Book Tour in Metro Manila where she can share her journey to Monstress, and how words can inspire and empower readers and writers alike.
