These are the covers for Caninstinct Volume One, which consists of chapters 1 to 9 with 9.5 as an added bonus chapter. There are two separate versions. One for Scribble Hub and the other for Royal Road.
All of it is done by the author himself, because God knows if anyone else wants to take credit for these awful, cropped shitstains.
New set of covers for Caninstinct Volume Two. This volume consists chapters 10 to 18 with 18.5 as an added bonus chapter.
As usual, two covers; one for Scribble Hub and another for Royal Road.
All by the author himself. You're welcome to try and take credit for these: I'd applaud more for your bravery than your shamelessness.
Sun goes down, moon goes up; fishes swim, birds fly; woman spreads hole, man inserts; new volume, new covers.
Same old, same old.
Caninstinct Volume Three. This volume consists of chapters 19 to 27 with 27.5 as an added bonus chapter.
Like before, there are two covers. One is used for Scribble Hub and another for Royal Road.
All made by yours truly, with shame.
There'll probably be more as I post on more platforms, but we'll see then.
The characters in the story all seem to have a personality which is a big plus. It's not easy to find those stories. The MC a 'half'-wolf Shiro is thrust into a world he feels he doesn't belong and his emotions of fear and bewilderment are well-captured. Side-characters too have a reason to exist in the plot rather than just populating the world to work for convenience. From the goose to the leopard, every one of them has different goals and motives. That its a rewrite of an earlier story is a definite plus. The story reads more flushed out than the average book here. There is a plot, and the worldbuilding and exposition comes in prose rather than a giant info-dump as well. This is not to say that there are no flaw. Especially there seem to be several inconsistencies in the story. For instance, in a school full of intelligent animals, cusses are still "mutt" and "bull" instead of picking on the plants. It is suffers from errors in tense (eg. Shiro 'is' lost.) and spelling. But given that each chapter is more than 3k words in length, it isn't the worst. AkalE's Recommendation: If you're looking for a character driven story without blue-screens and flashy magic you should try this.

The writing style is gorgeous, very poetic and emotionally descriptive. The characters are all interesting and alive.
The author manages to describe events and environments full of life, movement, emotion that I would never have thought possible. The world is alive and so are the people inhabiting it. There are no npc's and no boring environments, at least none that you notice. Each character acts with their own personality and thoughts. And they are oh so interesting.
