Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Katurran Odyssey by David Michael Wieger is an illustrated novel with art by Terryl Whitlatch. The latter is best known as one of the key concept artists to have worked Star Wars. She designed many of the incidental characters. The book may be her way of saying, "No, I did not make that up" by depicting the very real creatures who inspired her.The story is set in a world populated entirely by Intellectual Animals. Katook is a young ring-tailed lemur who ventures to a forbidden area of his once-idyllic island home that is now in the grip of a famine. Learning a dark and terrible secret, and forever singled out by the deity of his people, he is banished by the tribal elders and ventures across the sea in search of other lemurs. Instead, he finds a wide variety of monkey tribes, each with differing opinions of Katook's destiny. He finds fierce, frightening creatures. And he finds Quigga, a conceited quagga who gradually accepts the little primate first as a traveling companion and finally as an equal. Katook eventually receives a message from his god, returns to save his tribe, and good times are had by all.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The story... is a perfect storm of The Hero's Journey Tropes and animal tropes. See also a cinematic script.Although out of print for some time, in July 2019 a second edition was released. | |

Bamboo Technology - Mostly. There's a bit of Schizo Tech too in the form of a projector that is a fairly important plot point and in offhand mentions of metalwork and such. | |

Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp" | |
| The Katurran Odyssey / int_5ac34441 | comment |
Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp" - Several animals are given ficticious names. Some are land-before-time-esque, like "Bone Crushers" (Andrewsarchus), and others are creative neologisms based on the species' scientific name or non-anglophone renditions (like the various monkey species). | |

Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit" | |
| The Katurran Odyssey / int_d5a84e45 | comment |
Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit" - For some bizarre reason the elephant birds are called "moas", even though the artist herself went as far as distinguishing them from moa depictions by giving them wings and cassowary-like faces. | |
