Book Review: The Peltedverse Guidebook

Title: The Peltedverse Guidebook

Author: M.C.A. Hogarth

Date: 2025 (there were two earlier editions)

Quote:  "The genesis of the Pelted involved humanity wanting to seed space with friendly aliens."

The Pelted races are bioengineered humans with traits and features from other species spliced in. There are a few dozen races, most elaborations from the original Seersa (fox people) and Karaka'a (cat people) (species chosen at least partly because the author found cartoon fox and cat people fun to draw). They are found in a large, elaborate collection of novels with several series. This book is offered free of charge as a guide for those who want to know what sort of stories the Peltedverse series tell, choose which race they want to identify with, even create role-playing games and interact with one another as Pelted characters. 

A few truly alien species appear in the novels and are described in this book, too. 

If this description appeals to you, you can download The Peltedverse Guidebook free of charge from mcahogarth.org or studiomcah.com. The novels are not free of charge. People who have no personal prejudice against transhumanism in fiction say they're worth their price.
