Okay, so I did take a two month break from WoW and I got a few things done, namely my grand homage to the feline breed. "Thief of His Heart" published by AI Press is my spin on the whole city cat vs. country cat theme. The story revolves around Seth, a young male werecat who learns that money and flash aren't the end all-be all. I created two seperate types of werecats, the Basti: the feral, earthy cats who through history were comprised of warriors and brawn and then there are the Felia: sleek, more humanity-embracing cats who through history were concubines, advisors and thieves. Seth makes the mistake of trying to steal an important artifact from the Basti. Captured, confronted and punished by the sexy, yet intimidating Lord of the Basti, Seth is sentenced to spend time among the dust and dens of the Basti.

Now, I would be remiss if I didn't admit that my own two furballs, Zoe and Cougar were highly influential. Their incredible taste in cuisine, the deep appreciaiton of rest and relaxation and their sly mischievious antics influenced the book a good deal. I totally enjoyed world builing a culture and lifestyle for the Basti and was envisioning all sorts of creamed-liquors, catnip cigars and even sushi apps.

And last, but certainly no least, this book touches on a theme that I love, big strapping male versus lithe, smaller more submissive male.

To all who choose to read this book, I think you will quite enjoy it, even if you aren't a cat person per se.
