Anthro Camio

[Xanthos]

Its not uncommon in popular liturature to have some kind of anthopomorphic animal of one kind or another in fantasy novels. Not as main characters, most of the time, but often as supporting characters. So here's my question to you lovely anthro-loving fans: what stories have you read outside the fandom that have furry characters? And what role do they play? I can name a few:

The Wicked series: There are feral animals, but also Animals (set apart by the capital leter) who are your typical anthropomorphic animals. They, collectively serve as a discriminated group. I just can't get that scene from the philosophy club out of my head...

The Abhorsen series: It's been a long time since I read these books, but I belive that mulitiple characters have talking familiars?

The Golden Compass: Shapeshifting Deamons who take the form of animals. wee.

Forgotten Realms: The Finder's Stone series; one of the main characters had an anthro lizard following her through the entire series; he didn't speak any human toungue but he was definitely anthro and you only find out in the last book that he's a paladin from another world.

any doctor seuss books.

Rhapsody by Elizabeth Haydon; the two Bolg characters(you'd have to read it to get it) who were also main characters who traveled with a human bard who was part forest elf(i think).

i'm sure theres more i could name but i can think of any at the moment.

"The Architect of Sleep" is a classic in the fandom. Hard to find, though. I snatched up my copy at a used book shop.
