Review by: Gareth Ellzey on July 11, 2012 : star star star star star
Set in the universe of the Kintarans (cat-centaurs), and an immediate sequel to 'A Spoonful of Sugar,' this tale deals with the two sisters' efforts to find crew members to replace those who are departing. Coli decides that what worked for her forebears might just work for the present situation. Her efforts are rewarded, in more ways than one!
As usual, the story held me up, reading it after I should have been bed. Meshing identifiable motivations and engaging personalities with a real awareness of the alieness of a feline sextoped: "Under the other paw, however..." "After her hearts had finished pounding..." "Coli thought her sister to be swifter, and seasoned from bar-brawls and occasional dominance-spats." "She carefully tucked her tail under a hind-foot; even concealed, she felt it lashing against her belly ..."
I recommend this tail, er. TALE!
