If one reads this story on any level other than shallow, one will find several problems. The characters smoke like fiends, they drink to excess, they pass off bad habits to the aboriginal Fuzzies (including smoking and drinking), and the story comes close to advocating enslavement of a sapient species, even if it is in a gilded cage. If, however, one tosses off all care for moral considerations, this story is nothing but pure fun. All of our favorites in this series is here. Pappy Jack Hollo

I'm going to bump this series up to five stars. The sum really is more than the whole of its parts. Marvelous exploration of race, intelligence, loyalty, love, honor, friendship.... I want to keep them together, so even though I'm putting them in swap you can just ask for the set and I'll get it to you gratis if you promise to try to keep them together for more readers.

The long lost 3rd Fuzzy book was not published until the 80s. By the time this book was published, Ace had contracted William Tuning to write Fuzzy Bones and Ardath Mayhar to write Golden Dreams. This book definitely feels not quite finished, or edited. I think Piper probably would have fine-tuned it a but more before publishing it, had he lived.

The manuscript for this book was found after the author's untimely demise, which makes is all the more interesting. Well, not the storyline, but the book's background.
The names of these books alone should prompt people to want to read them, as hard as they are to get through.

After reading and enjoying [Fuzzy Nation] last year, John Scalzi's reboot of the original Little Fuzzy novel, I thought it would be great to read this original work that was a followup to Piper's first two Fuzzy novels. This story was not published in Piper's lifetime, and in fact it was two decades after his death before it saw print. Years ago I really enjoyed [Little Fuzzy], but I did not enjoy this one. It is really a sub-par novel. Part of the book, which follows a small band of Fuzzies led

The third volume in Piper’s Fuzzy series, Fuzzies And Other People was prepared from a rough manuscript and published twenty years after Fuzzy Sapiens. I feel for the folks who had to wait that long. Lucky me, I didn’t read these books until the late 80’s and got to read them in order right away! This book provides a far more unified, appropriate third volume than William Tuning’s Fuzzy Bones, the book originally released as the third Fuzzy volume. While that book was good and introduced so

Rating this a 3 from memory. I read this in high school, and I'm pretty sure I liked it then. I suspect that I would not enjoy it very much if I were to read it now.

Published posthumously, if memory serves. Suffers a bit because of it. Needed work. Still good. Worth reading.

I hate to say it, but I was disappointed by this book. There was a lot of stuff, but the situation was basically the same as it was at the end of Fuzzy Sapiens. If you're a trial lawyer some of the shenanigans in that area might amuse you. But I would hesitate to recommend this to anyone but people looking to scratch their Piper or Fuzzies completionist itch.
