Tailchaser Song Daw Book Collectors Tad Williams 9780886779535 Books

I love this book. It's cute, but Tad clearly didn't really know a lot about kitties way back in the olden days when he wrote this. It's also clear that he loves cats, though, so he's forgiven.

Example: Tad talks about a male calico kitty in the book. We know that there are very few (if any) male calicos in the world. Maybe that male calico is a magical kitty, though! Again, Tad gets a pass because this is such a lovely little tale (tail).

I read a book when I was a teenager called "The Fur Person". It moved me profoundly. This book had a similar effect on my. I'm hugging Tad Williams in my heart for this book.

Tailchaser Song Daw Book Collectors Tad Williams 9780886779535 Books Reviews

This is but one of a few books I've read multiple times - 5 to be exact. (Robert Heinlein's "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" and "Time for the Stars" being the other two.)

Essentially, this novel is akin to the Lord of the Rings meets Watership Down. And arguably better than both. There is a rich heritage in this book. Mythos, lore, noble characters, and well our beloved fine furried friends. If you are a cat lover and have not read this book, you are in sin. I'm sure of it. Some furry deity shall surely agree.

That said, there is a downside. This book is so beloved by me, that although I've bought a few other books by the author, I can never bring myself to read them. You see, I'm afraid to ruin such a perfect image I have of the author. Maybe it's just that I do not think anyone can write a more enjoyable book. Regardless, I am sorry Tad, someday I might read another work of yours. But I wager I'll just re-read Tailchaser's Song for the 6th or 7th time instead.

CAUTION DO NOT LOAN THIS BOOK OUT TO GIRLS. The three I did, never came back. This one was in fact bought for a lady friend. And I just flat out decided to buy her a copy rather than loan her mine, knowing I'd never see it again.
Join Tailchaser and friends for a delightful adventure in a richly developed feline world of mysticism, friendship and loyalty. The author's ability to so fully immerse you in his world is such, that from first page to last you can feel the wind in your whiskers and the path beneath your paw pads. Whether young in years or simply young at heart, you'll find yourself purring along and completely unable to put this page turner down. Tailchaser's Song is a delightful dalliance from the daily drudgery of M'an's world.
I had to hit "dark" for the mood, but that's not at all the full mood portrayed in this novel. There are some dark aspects, hopeful aspects, some suspense, some serious thought. Really, it's a tale with a cat as the main hero, and I tried to name my ginger cat Fritti as well, but got shot down by the husband. This, some ten to twelve years after actually reading the book, so the characters definitely stay with you. It is entirely appropriate for youth (and possibly even more impactful), and can be an easy, thrilling trip through fantasy land for an adult.
I first read this book in fifth grade, and I'm not exaggerating in saying that it defined my taste in media and likely influenced my decision years later to major in English lit. I read and loved this book, moved on to Tad's other books, then jumped off into reading all sorts of other fantasy books, then mythology and poetry, then classic literature. I've re-read it quite a few times since then (I'm now 30) and enjoy it every time. My dog-eared paperback always has a spot of honor on my bookshelf, one of the few "dead tree" books I keep around now that I have a .

It's a classic hero's journey kind of tale, but what makes it really shine are the great characters, the convincing feline perspective, and the dark bits of horror that take you by surprise in what could otherwise turn out to be a cute story about cats, were it written by a different author. It's very similar in that way to Watership Down, which I read and thoroughly enjoyed quite a while after finding Tailchaser's Song.

Despite whatever parallels you might draw between this and similar books, it stands on its own as a unique and charming novel. It has certainly stuck in my head for the last 20-something years.
