About this product
Product Information
From a veteran fur comes an immersive entry into the world of furry fandom, with an inside look at an amazing subculture, the timeless human instinct to identify with animals, and color images of furry costumes, art, and conventions. Furs are the creative subculture of people who identify with animals. You can find them at furry conventions, furfests, around the world--tens of thousands of people donning their most elaborate fursuit. In costume, at conventions, with friends or alone, furries unleash the animal within, letting their inner beasts roar and their inner cats purr, aware of the power--and joy--to be found in bringing forward one's animal side and encouraging others to do the same. In Furry Planet, long-time furry Joe Strike dives deep into this compelling subculture to share its appeal and rewards. Strike and a wealth of interviewees trace the history of the subculture and its various iterations today, in the process covering conventions, media, art, storytelling, community resources, costume creation, and advice for newcomers, and addressing stigmas and misconceptions head on. An unprecedented in-depth guide, Furry Planet is sure to inform and delight the ever-growing furry fandom and anyone who has ever been curious about it. Inside you'll find: Insight into the natural human impulse to anthropomorphize animals A fascinating history of furry fandom A detailed look at furcons around the world Inspiration for fursuit costume creation Color images of costumes, art, and conventions Much more!

Ursa Major Awards, Best Non-Fiction Work, Second Place "A fascinating introduction to a much-misunderstood community." - New York Post "Easily one of the best hats-off to our fandom, Furry Planet is a book for both the outsider curiously looking in and the longtime fur that's fully immersed! Strike's clever and amiable writing style is a perfect reflection of the fandom's spirit! He pulls you along in the coolest way through the furry timeline from its humble and endearing beginnings through to the present, but still-ongoing, evolution. " --NIIC the Singing Dog, furry musician and influencer "Rather like playing Pokémon Go in which you are exploring the world and Strike's book serves as your mobile phone through which you are able to discover interesting creatures to capture . . . Furry Planet is an enjoyable read, full of discoveries and surprises." --Dogpatch Press "A very solid 10 out of 10!" --Furry Times, "A fascinating introduction to a much-misunderstood community." - New York Post "Easily one of the best hats-off to our fandom, Furry Planet is a book for both the outsider curiously looking in and the longtime fur that's fully immersed!

The ordering process was easy and fast and the price was good. I did not have to wait long for delivery; the book was well packaged and arrived in excellent condition. It was listed on the website as "very good" but it actually looked brand new. All in all, very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely use ebay again.
