Tales featuring anthropomorphic animals have been around as long as there have been storytellers to spin them, from Aesop's Fables to Reynard the Fox to Alice in Wonderland. The genre really took off following the explosion of furry fandom in the 21st century, with talking animals featuring in everything from science fiction to fantasy to LGBTQ coming-out stories. In his lifetime, Fred Patten (1940-2018)--one of the founders of furry fandom and a scholar of anthropomorphic animal literature--authored hundreds of book reviews that comprise a comprehensive critical survey of the genre. This selected compilation provides an overview from 1784 through the 2010s, covering such popular novels as Watership Down and Redwall, along with forgotten gems like The Stray Lamb and Where the Blue Begins, and science fiction works like Sundiver and Decision at Doona.

Shark Week

The ocean is vast and mostly uncharted. In these nineteen stories, authors imagined some of what might be happening under the surface of the waves. Or in some cases, on dry land when water-dwelling creatures pull themselves out of the ocean into a world of furry and feathered animals that they struggle to relate to. Dance in a cuttlefish rave. Join a shark as she attempts to build an airship. Attend an underwater ball thrown by crab-aliens. Watch the last Asian dragon perform in a whale and dolphin circus. Listen to a ballad sung by lobsters and whelks. Hunt for a killer shark with two waring ocean races under a tense truce. Ride squid with the Hell’s Anglerfish seal gang. But above all, don’t forget to bring a wet suit! Featuring stories by Louis Evans, Allison Thai, Koji A. Dae, Gustavo Bondoni, Nenekiri Bookwyrm, Kary M. Jomb, Huskyteer, Kittara Foxworthy, Daniel Lowd, K.C. Shaw, Willow Croft, Mary E. Lowd, James L. Steele, Su Haddrell, Daniel R. Robichaud, Frances Pauli, Mark Slauter, Jude-Marie Green, and S. Park.
