Fans of the Twilight series and fans of animal transformation would do well to check out the novels of Colleen Houck. Her first book, Tiger’s Curse, introduces us to a teenage girl named Kelsey. She’s been given a very unusual assignment: Accompany a rare white tiger as he is shipped back to his native India. As soon as she lands though, things begin to get strange right away. Turns out that Ren, the former circus superstar, is not actually a tiger at all: He’s an Indian prince trapped under a bizarre magical curse which only allows him to assume his human form for 24 minutes a day. What’s more, Kelsey has been chosen by a powerful Indian goddess to be the girl who is destined to help Ren defeat the curse. Some assignment! Splinter released Tiger’s Curse in hardcover last January, and recently they released Tiger’s Quest, the second book in the series. In it, Kelsey must return to India to assist Ren’s less-than-savory brother Kishan, who has also fallen prey to the tiger’s curse. You can find out about these books and more in the series at Colleen Houck’s web site.

Furry artistic social community Fur Paws is now in open beta.

Created by Fur Affinity founder Alkora, the site was launched June 2, but went down for two days after a security issue was raised, allegedly involving the naming of uploaded files.

Fur Paws features multi-picture character profiles, folders and a safe-for-work login option. Currently only images and stories are supported; music uploads are planned. Initially known as Art Paws, the site was renamed over trademark issues. It has adopted an ‘honest’ privacy policy.

 

This flash piece blends a tale of folklore and magic. Pretty White Snake, once a powerful luck charm, is now shunned by the people who fear him and his power, leaving him forced to travel the dream-paths searching for one who is not afraid of him. Will Pretty White Snake succeed, or will he continue to languish, powerless and despised?

For many furs, Anthrocon is approaching – but roughly 50 Finns are looking forward to the first FinnFur Summer Camp (website), held 1-3 July at Röskö in the forests of North Karelia. Planned activities include BBQ, lake swimming, rowing, motor-boating and dances, plus indoor games.

All cabin spaces have sold out (at 30-40€ + 10€ for sponsors); campers can still attend for 35€.

The event is led by SlvWolf, founder of Finnish-language Furboard and TurriWiki, and was mentioned in a letter to Knotcast #141 (AAC/MP3 – 10:43).

Folks who have been following on-line comics for a while, especially anthro comics, might recall a particular one called Buster Wilde: Weerwolf.  As written and drawn by Scott Zellman, it tells of the trials and tribulations of an ordinary heterosexual human guy who, once bitten, keeps transforming into Buster — a decidedly queer werewolf with a party-all-night attitude! No it’s not pornographic and yes, it’s very much for adults only. Originally available exclusively on the Buster site at Furnation.com, FurPlanet and Bad Dog Books have announced that it will now be released as a black & white trade paperback later this June. Mr. Zellman has also been re-printing the original Buster strips in a larger format up on BadDog’s site.

n 2002, YiffStar was born. Run and mainly supported out of pocket by Toumal, It stood for Yiffy Story Archive and functioned as a site for mainly adult themed stories, art and music, housing some 25,000 entries by fall of 2007. In 2008, Alex Vance was working on his own concept for a “Social Content Platform” called “Anthropad”.

Toumal and Alex had already worked together on Alex’s own furry story archive, FurRag, and being friends had no problems working together on other projects. Toumal was excited about some of the concepts Alex had for his “Anthropad” concept, and through discussion, they both reached an agreement that instead of building a new site from scratch, using off the shelf software, they would instead use some of those very same concepts to rebuild Yiffstar, which was in need of a refresh after 8 years of service.

It took a year and a half, a”Cadre” of coders and extensive work, but YiffStar was relaunched as SoFurry on December 26, 2009.

Well someone had the bright idea to get the Westboro church to protest AnthroCon. Looks like the mod's locked down this post though, so no harm done.

In Zookeeper, the animals at the Franklin Park Zoo love their kindhearted caretaker, Griffin Keyes (Kevin James). Finding himself more comfortable with a lion than a lady, Griffin decides the only way to get a girl in his life is to leave the zoo and find a more glamorous job. The animals, in a panic, decide to break their time-honored code of silence and reveal their biggest secret: they can talk! To keep Griffin from leaving, they decide to teach him the rules of courtship -- animal style. The film also stars Rosario Dawson and Leslie Bibb and features the voices of Cher, Nick Nolte, Adam Sandler, and Sylvester Stallone.

Hamster Rage is an interesting beast by writer and artist Brian J. Crowley. It's a webcomic featuring an anthropomorphic super powered hamster with a penchant for trench coats and cheese. Nevertheless, the lead character isn't what makes this an odd read. It is the feeling that so much more is going on beyond the scenes than the reader is privy to. The first introductory batch, available online or in a recently released paper issue, features Roosevelt, the titular raging hamster, alongside a boatload of supporting characters duking it out in the streets of Chicago, featuring a number of landmarks familiar to people who frequent Montrose between Ashland and Clark.

I went to a meeting earlier in the day to see a game that was billed "a mystery game from Sony." The only other information I knew about it was that it was announced at the Sony press conference yesterday.

I was hoping and praying the game was Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time.

Lucky for me, it was! GLORIOUS!

Poor James Pond. A star on the Amiga, he never quite made an impact on other platforms, though he sure as hell tried. James Pond II - Codename: Robocod, in particular, is one of those inescapable games that resurfaces every few years on a new console, with its most recent appearance being as a freebie title featured in Sony UK's "Welcome Back" program for PlayStation 3 and PSP owners.

This month, however, James will return in his first new adventure since 1993's The Aquatic Games. James Pond in The Deathly Shallows ("Yes, you did read that correctly," the press release assures) ditches the platforming gameplay that defined later sequels for side-scrolling shooter mechanics that recall the original James Pond for the Amiga and Sega Genesis.

Few other details have been revealed, but you can probably expect lots of fish, bubbles, and terrible puns when the game releases for the iPhone and iPad on June 30th. Maybe if we're lucky, James will take another ill-advised swipe at Sonic the Hedgehog.
