Cover art:
The cat on the cover is Beni-Wan Cat-Obi. He was the dream cat of Time Yarns Universe originator and anthology editor Erin Lale, who found him through a Bengal Cat breed rescue website and adopted him from 9th Life Hawaii. Since the Bengal breed is illegal in Hawaii, the no-kill shelter flew Beni to the mainland to be adopted in Nevada, where his breed is legal. He had been a wharf cat in Maui before being rescued. His age was unknown, but lived in Nevada for 3 years. He died of lung cancer while this anthology was being edited. Erin dedicates this anthology to his memory and to the continuing plight of Bengal Cats picked up by shelters in states where the breed cannot be adopted locally, and to other cats and dogs affected by breed bans.
Time Yarns:
Time Yarns is a shared world. It's a different kind of shared world, in which the stories don't necessarily share any characters, but in which physics and magic work the same way across all the stories in the Time Yarns Universe. Time Yarns is a universe of alternate time continua.
The characters, settings, etc. in stories written by universe originator Erin Lale can be freely used by other writers, artists, etc. The stories and artwork by other creators are copyrighted by the writers and artists and their characters and other work belong to them.
In addition to the Time Yarns short story anthologies, Time Yarns also publishes Lale's novels, operates the Time Yarns website, and has produced a Time Yarns Universe trailer.

Review:
Quotes from the Review by Susannah MacDonald:
About Night Prowlers:
"The reader is lead easily into the twists and turns of this amusing piece."
About Locard's Tale:
"This paranormal tale of tails, begins with the sweep of a cat's plumed tail,
and continues with the introduction of this distinctive cat, Locard. Locard is
found after a hurricane, and his presence weaves, suitably catlike, through the
ins and outs of Jeremy's quest to discover the truth behind the family mystery,
that of an `icy' cold case."
About The Sleepy Cat's Treasure Hunt
"The story is full of this richly comic imagery."
About The 13th Time
"... original and touching."
About Long Time I Hunt
"This delightful and beautifully written story, draws together elements of
traditional culture and spirituality, with a narrative told from the cat's point
of view."
