The Forest Tales are a series by Bernard Doove and set in the 24th century. They are largely focused on chakats, their lovers and kin, including a number of Foxtaurs as the stories progress. The stories are written (mostly) from the view point of Goldfur's sister Forestwalker.

There are 30 parts so far in this series. A comic adaptation of part 6 (with art by Kacey) was published in Four Footed Furries. Parts 16 to 18 were published as a stand-alone novel entitled Transformations and featured Ursa Major Award winning front cover art by Stephanie Stone a.k.a. Cybercat.

Forestwalker[edit]

Forestwalker with hir mate Admiral Kline

Forestwalker, or just forest Forest, is the main narrator of the series. Forest is a jaguar-patterned chakat, sister to Goldfur, and chronicler of their family's lives.

Born on 18 August 2301 to Chakats Desertsand and Longstripe, shi is their second child. Shi has a very strong empathic talent and is very intelligent, and likes to help others to the point of meddling. Shi is very family-oriented, and has several diverse lifemates and denmates, starting with Kris - a red fox, Trina - an Arctic fox, Midnight - a chakat, Admiral Boyce Kline - a human, and most recently Leanna - a herm fennec fox.

Forest and hir family live in Australia, where chakats were created. Shi works for the Department of Conservation & Environment in hir capacity as an expert biologist, but has taken temporary assignments on starships to spend more time with some of hir star-faring mates.

Shi enjoys the new experiences, but still prefers the Australian Outback. Hir hobbies include bushwalking and rock-climbing, the latter skill learned from Trina.
