More Than Conquerors is the second novel by Filipino author Edilberto K. Tiempo. The novel first appeared in 1959 in the pages of Weekly WomenâÂÂs Magazine. It was first published in book format in 1964.
With the Filipino resistance movement during the Second World War employed as the âÂÂbackgroundâ of the novel, the focus of the narrative is Andres, a lawyer, and his two brothers. The three brothers were tortured by the Japanese occupiers through the horizontal spread-eagle "crucifixion" method. The brothersâ predicament echoed a similarity to âÂÂthe Christ figure in the midst of temptation and at CalvaryâÂÂ.
