All Speakers Great and Small: The Non-Human Narrator
Reblogged from Guild Of Dreams:
Having a central character who is not human is certainly not unheard of in genre novels. I can easily think of a few fantasy tales with creature protagonists. Tad Williams "Tailchaser's Song," and Richard Adams "Watership Down" and "The Plague Dogs" are the first to come to mind. "Sirius" by Olaf Stapledon is another. While having an animal as a protagonist can be difficult at times when writing in third person, it is an even greater challenge if you choose to present the story in first person.
