The World of Animus

The many, merry adventures of Baron von Meowhausen, Time-Traveller and Culinary Explorer extraordinaire

Our YouTube channel has been launched!

 

Talking animal stories, cat audiobook adventures, and other audiobook stories is what you will find on this channel.

Since 2009, we have worked on developing our fantasy world’s lore, history and heroes such as Meowhausen, the time-travelling Dine Lord in whose honour we named our channel.

So if you are in the mood for an instrumental tune, a talking cat story, audiobook adventure or a fun cat video, you’ve come to the right place. Our genre is fantasy fiction and our talking animal stories primarily take place on the magic animal world of Animus. Please watch the first episode to learn more here: http://bit.do/ani1

In the meantime, keep an ear out for our animal audible adventures, we will do our best to bring you one cute cat story after another!

Tales of Animus: Winning at Life (Book 3) is out!

The book’s by-line reads:

‘Tis in times of peril—not blithe leisure,
That we truly find a hero’s measure.

As the saying goes, being a hero is not about being immune to fear—that’s ignorance, not heroism. Being a hero is about doing the right thing despite fear. Loyalty, keeping promises and preserving our integrity often requires a great deal of personal sacrifice and willpower. Throughout our lives we wonder whether these virtues are worth the hardship we put ourselves through for the privilege of being able to meet our own gaze in the mirror without doubt or regret. Our mentors tell us how we take for granted things others in the world are praying for and how what does not kill us strengthens us and builds character.

Many of the heroes in these stories are conflicted. They embark upon desperate journeys of self-discovery, in search for missing pieces of their souls. Although none of the protagonists are human, their inner-most struggles are easily-relatable to us, as we have all experienced disappointment, temptation, envy, rejection and other manifestations of fear. Simply put, this book takes you on exciting, bite-sized adventures, where you will witness flawed characters dream big, dig deep, rise to extraordinary challenges and do their best to prevail through their faith and ingenuity.

All of the stories are about someone accepting a challenge, succeeding and thereby growing or… avoiding hardship, succumbing to fear and thereby becoming diminished by hiding from the experience. These stories seek to kindle and amplify that spark of heroism that lives in every one of us.
