* * FURRY NOVEL LIST - Version 2.0 - 20-Jun-2001 * *
*************************************************************
List currently maintained by Dave Farrance

******************************
Introduction by original list maintainer, Dan Lorey.
This is a list of novels that may be of interest to a.f.f readers. It
is by no means a complete list, and if you know of something not on the
list that should be here (or, heaven forbid, something that is on the list
that shouldn't be *grin*), I'd appreciate it if you'd e-mail [the current
list maintainer].
For the list, I'm defining a "furry novel" as a novel containing at
least one major furry character/plot thread - the presence of humans will
not be grounds for disqualification. I realize that this is a rather broad
definition, but I'd rather the definition be too broad than too narrow.
I've arranged the list into these categories of furriness:
1) Animals behaving intelligently - This type of story deals with
animals in their natural forms showing innate intelligence.
Example: _Watership Down_ by Richard Adams.
2) Intelligent Animals - These stories deal with animals in their
natural forms who, through methods scientific, magical or other, are able
to express their intelligence in interactions with humans and/or other
"intelligent" species.
Example: _Startide Rising_ by David Brin. (True, dolphins have no
fur, but they *are* mammals, which, IMHO, make them ex officio furries.)
3) Intelligent Animalmorphs - These stories, obviously enough, deal
with anthropomorphic species.
Example: _The Pride of Chanur_ by C. J. Cherryh.
[ Due to popular request, Farry will be adding a fourth category,
shapeshifting animalmorphs ]
Wherever possible, the listings include author, title, specie(s) of
furries involved, year of publication, publisher and ISBN number (usually
for a U.S. paperback edition). This list now includes, where possible,
forthcoming furry books (information for these books has been gleaned from
assorted sources, especially the _Locus_ list of forthcoming books). For
these books, the date of publication and publisher is set off in
asterisks.
If you feel like sending additions, please include as much of this info
as you can. My sincere thanks to everyone who has contributed additions -
the response to date has been gratifyingly overwhelming!
I make no promises as to how good the stories are; besides, I'm sure
opinions may vary on many of these novels (both on quality and furriness).
Enjoy!
Dan Lorey

Suggested addition: Joe Grey is a cat who is given human intelligence
and knowledge of English (spoken and written). Method: magic; I
believe it's the unintended consequence of a spell intended to protect
against werecats, but my memory is shaky on this.

Speaking of intelligent cats, there is Catseye Gomez, PI (well, more
or less) who first appeared in Simon Hawke's _The Wizard of Santa Fe_
(1991, http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?5019), then reappeared
in "The 9 Lives of Catseye Gomez" (1991, http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?539701)
and finally starred in _The Nine Lives of Catseye Gomez_ (1992,
http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?5022).

One, the grandfather clause. I suspect that the Furry Novel List pre-dates
rasf.written itself. :)
Two, although I only skimmed those links you provided, I don't see any
criticism of the fact that you posted your list. There was some criticism
of what was on the list, as you presented it as a 'best of' list. That's
fuel for debate and you should have expected some. There is very little
debate about what is and is not an anthropomorphic themed novel, and so the
furry list is very non-inflammatory.
