Meeki and G.I.G.O.I. by Rune

It’s a 2 page comic proving this vixen is smarter than any human. I really like it.

Fox Force in Disappearing Trick by Juan Alfonso

Is part 1 of a multi part adventure of how “Furries” are disappearing and the investigation to find them. Looks interesting hope I can find the next part of this adventure.

The of the art included in this issue is suitable for work, and are worth taking a look. There are some few really excellent pieces. Only 1 or 2 that is really borderline NSFW

Chained Reaction by Kjartan Arnosson

At first when you see that naked anthro bull being tortured by a female cat you think one thing, when actually it’s a sex game. Nothing that exceptional 3 out of 10

Rough Housing by Brian Sutton

I am being to think sex role playing must be the theme of this issue. Male wolf plots and plans a conquest, until this woman shows up.

Pink Soft Cream by Tabitha R. Jones and James Hardiman

A good case of lesbian rescuing lesbian, with a lesbian having a mad plot 2 out of 10

Ringing up Baby by Cindy Crowell

A reprint from the previous issue but still a good poke at relationships 9 out of 10

Art is nice, fair quality nothing exceptional.

Honestly I really didn’t know what to expect when I opened the very first issue of PentMouse I had ever seen. But what I found was drawings. ink and pen and that is really it, expect for 1 furry pubication review and that being Sleepers.

So what do you honestly get from artists Tygger, Robert Hill, Scott Alston, Paccrat, Bill Fitts, Steven Corbet, Terrie Smith, Jay Shell, Pelzig, Joesph Nye, Henry Gagne, Kevin Vetroneand Juan Alfonso. Furry porn, is it any good? it isn’t that bad and I think if your into it, you could paw off to it. Really I give it 6 out of 10.

A childhood full of monster of the week movies made me into the horse I am today. As a horror fan, giants hold a very special place in my heart. Giants played no small (ahem) part in helping me see monsters as more often dangerously misunderstood creatures than outright evil figures.

And, yet, I don’t particularly find myself attracted to the giant mythos. Not that I’m against Macrofurry stuff. I do like transformation stories and I do like submissive characters; so there’s quite a bit of overlap there with size shifting.

In this tale, set in a furry universe in a vague period prior to Hawaii’s statehood, Russel the cougar is looking to become a literature professor at a very posh American University in San Francisco. It’s probably in the 1950’s, even if the villain of the piece, Cornelius Bennett, is known as a “rail baron.” The first few pages felt nearly as staid and boring as any academic event that one might expect, but when the curvaceous otter Kailani enters the scene, things to pick up. I enjoyed every scene Kailani was in; even the scene where they are discussing The Great Gatsby. She is simply one of those people who are larger than life. *ahem*

And it’s to the authors credit that Kailani’s robust presence doesn’t overshadow the other characters in the scene with her. Russell becomes a bigger personality when he’s with her and, later, trying to be with her. Often in stories with this type of transformation from quiet protagonist with a plan to hero of the tale, the author relies on the cast to tell the hero/heroine that she changed. Here, I felt it.

No one had to tell me.

I especially liked feeling all of Russell’s conflicting emotions and I cheered as he scrapped the burden of a lifetime of checklists and mile-markers. Any sex is discreetly offstage and even the violence is discreet… maybe even too discreet, but I understand the choice.

I liked that both San Francisco and the islands felt very real and well researched. I did not feel the time period as well researched, but then I am OK with an alternate reality of an Earth packed with multiple species having a different history. I tend to demand it, in fact, so I didn’t really miss the temporal veracity too much. It’s enough that nothing really contradicted the feeling of a mid-20th century America… not even the color’s in the magazine Russell should hide when he has company.

Trader Vic being in San Francisco, also suggests the 1950’s… but that brings me to the only serious flaw to this tale. There are too many mentions of things from our mundane universe. I say this fully aware that this isn’t a big deal for most of the Furry reading community. Things change in a culture with multiple species, I should think, otherwise all these creatures might as well be humans in zipper back fur suits.

But that said, this novella is worth reading for the adventure and the soft romance… even if I sometimes forgot what species Russell was. And if you love giant, powerful female furs going doing a bit of wrecking ball work, this book is a must buy.

I want to make it very clear that the 6 comics featured in Untamed volume 2 which is still available from Rabbit Valley HERE features sex between humans and anthropomorphic animals, and like any other sex comic you can think of has little plot and lots of sex.

Party Favor by Style Wagner

Features a human woman as a living serving platter for sushi to a pack of wolves and soon becomes the sexual party favor for the entire pack.

On the Hunt by Ebony Leopard

Features a human man at an all anthro sex club, really that is the entire plot.

Good Girl by Max Blackrabbit

Features a man and a female anthro dog trapped under the rubble of a burning building. It’s hard to know the sex that soon begins is fantasy or reality,

Cat Magic by Stephanie Lynn

Features a dream by this woman and her male cat Sebastian which only turns anthro after she falls asleep, and naturally they have sex.

Dog House by Steve Gallacci and Roz Gibson

Is the only one the 6 comics that has anywhere even close to an interesting plot. In the future dogs are anthro, wear shorts and sorta act like servants. Besides that we got what seems like the perfect family, except the father is both a drunk and violent against his wife. In desperation she turns to the family dog for comfort which includes sex. There is a minor sub plot over some kind of authority over these anthro dogs, but really it’s meaningless. In the end it shows the loyalty to the dog’s female owner. This one is really worth checking out.

Welcome by Heather Burton and David M. Stein

Which features a woman camping in Africa when a pack of hyenas drop by for sex.

Overall I would say it’s average for a sex comic, except for Dog House.

Genus magazine issue 05

One on One by Fred Perry

An interesting take on who will be the champion plot. Since the final 2 in this contest is a man and a woman it turns into an act of sex. May the best person win, I thought it interesting and just enough different to make me want to read it to the bitter end.

The Gift by Brian Sutton

A Lady of Noble birth and her servant wonders around this city which could have been taken from the arabian nights. The Lady then takes her servant to a brothel. Reason being that the servant’s sister is a slut. The servant then soon discovers what life in a brothel is really like. In what I discovered was a multi part story this mysterious…but topless woman shows up in the last panel.

An Unlikely Champion by Kjartan Arnorsson

It seems this is a continuation of The Mink story from previous issues. Where in ‘The Mink’, meets up with a woman who can raise zombies from their graves…and of how they simply a ruined a party she had planned.

The client better known as Savage Squirrel then goes on the attack. First the zombies then her, finally we learn this too is a multi part story.

Overall a really enjoyable issue.

Collars and Cuffs by Dennis Clark

Is a story of 2 roommates a man and a woman both Sheriff deputies. The man is very conservative while the woman, well she doesn’t wear underwear.

The man plot is of a dinner with a senator who likes what he sees and starts fucking it as soon as possible.

Standard sex comic, very little plot and I was confused who was who.

Shopping Trip by Brian Sutton

All I can say about this one is WTF?!! Lady of leisure goes shopping with her pet. A smaller version of herself and naked, in a standard Arabian Nights marketplace. Where they meet this man.

No sex but I admit I don’t get this one

Son of a Beach by Todd Sutherland and Chuck Davies

It starts out when 2 sisters go to a lonely stretch of beach and your typical sitcom plot steps in. Barely interesting

Romance and sex have always surrounded travel, and the vehicles we use for it. Even in the age of mass transit, there’s still a thrill in leaving the known behind and moving as a stranger among strangers.

A sense of movement, freedom and adventure pervades these seven tales of M/F erotica, each set in, or set in motion by, a different form of transport.

Self-published ebook, 2016, pay what you want.

A word, first, about the price of the book. To purchase Bodies in Motion, you PayPal the author whatever you think >80,000 words of erotica is worth, and receive your ebook the next time the author is awake and at a computer.

It’s a business model that either places a high level of trust in readers, or says “Hey, I had fun writing this. You have fun too!” Or maybe both.

There is plenty of fun to be had. Baird takes us to a bustling spaceport, a pirate airship somewhere over Africa, a flying-boat in an alternate 1930s, a railroad carriage in Colorado, and more. (If you’re already a fan, you will recognise some settings from his various series on SoFurry.) My personal favourite is probably ‘Next Exit: Camelot’, a 1970s road trip steeped in the ethos, and the music, of the decade. (There’s also a husky in it, which helps.)

The stories may be light on plot, but there’s always the sense of a rich world beyond the boundaries of the tale at hand. The settings, whether fantasy, historical, alt-historical or sci-fi, are atmospheric and evocative, and the characters obviously have lives to live and stuff to do when the story is over. These people have not been called into existence to bonk in a vacuum.

Baird’s universe is sex-positive and female-positive; the women generally call the shots, and the sex is fun, without baggage.

The self-published ebook has been produced to a high standard, with no typographic nasties. Fitting the transport theme, the cover takes the form of a passport. It’s respectable enough to display on your Kindle in public, and contains some neat little jokes. Each story also has its own adorable piece of pixel art, created by Italian fur MrMandolino, as a header.

It’s hard to ask whether a book is worth your money when you choose how much to spend on it. I can tell you, however, that this one is worth your time.

Cheerful, funny, well-written and sexy, Bodies in Motion comprises seven little escape capsules to other worlds and times. All aboard!

A crowdfunded war fought by genetically identical dog-people created as soldiers and emancipated into a world that doesn’t understand, or always approve of, their special talents.

What could possibly go wrong?

Edane, Ereli and their hundreds of brothers were grown and trained to form fighting units, but the company that created them was shut down when they were still, biologically, children.

Now adults, some scrape a living as mercenaries, doing odd jobs, or fighting for a betting audience. The lucky ones have a career in MilSim, a realtime combat simulation game, but some figures in the sport are starting to argue that they’re too good and shouldn’t compete.

Self-published, 2016, ebook (288 pages) $4.99 (US) / £3.99 (UK).

Meanwhile, they struggle to relate to the humans and other gengineered species around them: partners, adoptive parents, colleagues and friends.

What they were built for, what they’re good at, what makes them feel right, is war. With no war currently available, they make their own.

The people of Azerbaijan want to topple their country’s oppressive regime, so why not set up a fund for anyone who’s angry enough, and can spare a few New Dollars, to chip in? Meet the target, and the dogs take out the dictator.

For Ereli, living in a crowded apartment and struggling to pay his share of the rent, joining the operation is an easy decision. Edane, on the other hand, has a girlfriend, a MilSim team, and loving parents, Cathy and Beth. But is he happy?

There are many books about clones and genetically engineered creatures, but few get under the skin of them so well. Cross explores what it’s like to enter the world having been institutionalised from birth, and to struggle with concepts like humour and sexual attraction.

As well as clone biology, there’s plenty of technical detail surrounding the military and medical technology of the future, and enough about MilSim to make it sound like a pretty good time as well as a convincing sport.

Although the science behind the fiction stands up to even rigorous poking, above all this is a story about coping in a world where you’ll never be normal and don’t know how to fake it.

Dog Country is set in the same world as several of Cross’s earlier works, including the Ursa Major Award-winning Dangerous Jade (FurPlanet, 2012) and War Dog (originally published in New Fables). This is the first full-length novel to come out of San Iadras.

You can take a short trip to Dog Country by visiting Pavlov’s House, published April 2014 in Strange Horizons.
