What is it about the cat that captivates the creative imagination? No other creature has inspired so many authors to take pen to page. Mystery, horror, science fiction, and fantasy stories have all been written about cats.
From legendary editor Ellen Datlow comes Tails of Wonder and Imagination, showcasing 40 cat tales by some of today's most popular authors. With uncollected stories by Stephen King, Carol Emshwiller, Tanith Lee, Peter S. Beagle, Elizabeth Hand, Dennis Danvers, and Theodora Goss and a previously unpublished story by Susanna Clarke, plus feline-centric fiction by Neil Gaiman, Kelly Link, George R. R. Martin, Lucius Shepard, Joyce Carol Oates, Graham Joyce, Catherynne M. Valente, Michael Marshall Smith, and many others.
Tails of Wonder and Imagination features more than 200,000 words of stories in which cats are heroes and stories in which they're villains; tales of domestic cats, tigers, lions, mythical part-cat beings, people transformed into cats, cats transformed into people. And yes, even a few cute cats.

Fascinating

there are two primary narrators doing the performances. Technically the performances are top notch. However I continually found myself getting perturbed and bored with one of the narrator's. to the extent I didn't even want to finish the book .
it's a personal preference thing, but I think I will pay attention and avoid future books being performed by one of the two of them.
Good even Great stories. technical production is very good. 13hr left and I am contemplating skipping and remaining stories read by one narrator.
Does this cat have 9 lives...

That being said (and this will be a bit spoiler-y) In some of these stories cats come to a bad end - and that seems to have been too much for a few very vocal readers. However, let me point out that in any good story it is possible for an important character to meet a bad end. This creates story tension. And, in several of these stories People meet bad ends. Apparently this did not offend any sensibilities. I'm assuming these people wouldn't have had anything nice to say about Old Yeller. That is, of course, had old yeller been a cat.
Really Good Mix of short Fiction. -
