Just noticed this review from back in June of my story “Cats in Victory.” I like the last line.
“Cats in Victory” by David Barr Kirtley takes place in a future time in which catmen are engaged in killing off dogmen. They have already killed off monkeymen and birdmen and frogmen. Now, they have what might be the last of the dogmen in their sights. They hope that Cat will descend back to Earth and restore them to their true forms. Lynx is a young catman who is showing soldiers where he saw dogmen when they find a strange object with what they think is a monkeyman inside. But he has Cat with him. And Cat does not talk. We, of course, have a better idea of what is going on and all becomes clear eventually. This was a nicely imaginative story about the problems of dogma, or would that be catma?
