This story is amazing, you are going to fall in love with the characters, you'll hate that you love some of them, and you Will Cry. That's a threat and a promise. This is the queer trans furry story that you'll ever read. Warning: If you aren't trans, gay, or furry coming into this story, you might find that you are when leaving. So have fun!

I confess that I wasn't expecting much out of a story about trans furry cat burglars other than a fun time.   And this story does deliver on that, but it also hits a lot more deeply than I thought it would.   The trials that Cat and Fox deal with are very real to the trans community in general, such things as Fox dealing with the shadow, or the ones who Geppette sheltered, all of that is very well done.   I so badly would love to have a Goddess call me her daughter, that scene was so beautiful it brought tears.

And then there are the characters, quirky and more complex than first appearances, as well as a general optimism that differences can be overcome and enemies can become friends.   The fights are amazingly creative, although I do have to admit that the Janus fight simply baffled me.    The story has me quite intrigued where all of this will end up.

This is a wonderful story, and well worth the read! The musical magic system is brilliant, and the way the characters grow and change throughout the story is truly heartwarming. The ways the characters’ struggles, both internal and external, were written make the characters feel real in ways I haven’t encountered very often. Some parts of the writing are a little confusing, but it’s clear that this is an intentional attempt at conveying how confusing the situations were for the characters in them, which I think worked out quite well. All in all, I couldn’t recommend this story enough!

I don't often sit down and write reviews. I find it hard to express into words what I feel. I think it says something, then, that I'm writing this now.

I have a lot to relate to the characters in this story. I'm a plural transfemme furry (?) that suffers deeply from depression. This story... it hurt to read, because the envy and empathy I felt towards these characters, over their struggles to find themselves and their relationships with each other, their losses and their triumphs. It hurt on a deep, personal level. It reminded me so much of what I want from my life, so much so I have bookmarked 4 chapters to go back and reread, when I wonder why I bother with  trying to find romance and love. 

This is not a happy story. It is, better, a hopeful story. The type of story that reminds me there is hope out there still. There is potential for people to do better, to be better. There is a chance at a better life for all. We are able to do so much, but if we continue to tear each other down in an attempt to climb to the top, we never will.
