Tales of Hayven Celestia tells thirteen stories of ordinary people put in extraordinary circumstances. Stuck in situations far beyond their control, they have to make the hardest choices of their lives. The stakes have never been higher, and one wrong move will lead to catastrophe. This anthology features stories by Frances Pauli, Gre7g Luterman, Kandrel, Kate Watts, Phox Sillanpaa, Rick Griffin, Robert Carter, SixSydes, and Wyatt Winters, as well as illustrations by Kyoht Luterman, Six Sydes and Rick Griffin.
This anthology collection has one of the most fleshed out sci-fi universes I think I've ever seen in furry fiction. I really enjoyed reading about all of the different alien species (that almost all have some earth animal counterpart) throughout the various stories. Having a glossary in the back for folks unfamiliar to the wider series with illustrations and descriptions definitely helped me get up to speed as I was reading. Each of the stories is self-contained, but is set within the larger universe setting of Hayven Celestia. The quality of each story can vary, but I chalk this up to having a mix of veteran and new writers contributing to the overall anthology. I think if you're into science fiction and wanted to try out furry fiction that this would be a good book to read. It's got a wide variety of stories and styles set in space and at least a few should really resonate with you.
