Catgirl Doctor: The Complete Omnibus

Catgirl Doctor, Book 1, 2, 3

De: Brandon Varnell

Narrado por: Jessica Threet, Christopher Boucher

Contains the complete Catgirl Doctor series.

Catgirls have had a symbiotic relationship with humans since time immemorial. Many young men long to become breeders: humans who are responsible for quelling a catgirl’s lust when they go into heat.

Chris Redford was just a normal college student attending San Diego University for his PhD in catgirl physiology and medicine to become a catgirl doctor. When he comes across Silva, an abused catgirl, Chris finds his purpose in life and shifts to accommodate his new responsibilities. Once he learns about what happened to the young catgirl now in his care, he is forced to confront the darker side of humanity.

Catgirl Doctor contains adult content, themes, and harem situations. It does not pander to prudes.

Very good story

A good story with very likable characters. The pacing is good with the right balance if action, sexy time, and character development. The narrators did a great job with becoming the people in the story and allowing me to just lose myself in the book.

Relies too heavily on Anime logic and tropes

Not too bad, but I wish the author spent more time on original world-building for *Cat Girls* and/or research on what med school's actually like, given how much it's (over) explained.

highly derivative but not unlistenable... barely.

A different take on Cat Planet Cuties. My only complaint is Varnell has an annoying habit of padding his stories with unnessassary descriptions of every day things. I know how luggage locks and pour over coffee work, I don't need to be told. Detailed descriptions of the procedure for these types of things does not help with world-building or character development... so very annoying. My thoughts are that Varnell is using it as a a cheap and quick way to add to his word count so he can crank out work and make his offerings seem longer than they are. It gets tedious after a while.

Funny and light

It was layered in kindness with a dark side I loved it and a happy ending 🥰

AWESOME!!!

Loved It, Voices were perfect and story compelling to the very end leaving wanting more.

A Cat is Fine Too

This Audio recording of the Catgirl Doctor Omnibus takes a good story and makes it better. The dual narration style works well, both actors play several different rolls well, and the whole affair is fun from start to finish.

The story follows Chris Redford, a college student, as he goes from rescuing young Silva from her escape at the hands of an abusive owner to his attempt to save an orphanage under debt from a scheming crime lord to navigating the day to day life of a college student, all while falling head over heels into a harem of three unique catgirls.

I did find it a distraction that the story likes to stop in places to describe in exacting detail things that really didn't matter to the story. A prime example would be when the story takes pains to describe the brand and type of tablet Chris uses to draw commissions and how it isn't as good as another specific brand or type. Another might be when the series name drops specific anime the characters are watching and then explains to the reader what they are about like we couldn't just Google them if we didn't know.

Overall, the story is delightfully slice of life with solid drama and believable relationships that all blend together to make for an interesting story. Definitely Varnell at his finest.

A great practice for your poker face

Brandon Varnell once again amazes me with a novel. This time it was the Catgirl Doctor omnibus where Christopher Boucher and Jessica Threets plays out the story of a medical student and his three cute catgirl wifes/girlfriends. 


Now, let's get this out of the way first, if you didn't read the book description (like some who reads Brandon's books doesn't seem to do) this book includes sex. Lots of it. From the last few chapters of the first novel, until the end of the omnibus, there's at least 10 sex scenes (if I counted correctly). It also includes mentions of sex slavery, rape, sexual harassment, and the coping of going through all of that. None of this (other than the sex) is described graphically, but it's mentioned and a big part of two of the main girls' pasts.


It's also important to mention that, just like all other Brandon Varnell books, this series is heavily inspired by anime and manga. You can still enjoy it without liking anime, but I think you'll enjoy this more if you do.


With that put of the way, let's get on with this review.


The story of Catgirl Doctor centers around the everyday life of Chris(topher) Redford, a university student studying to become a catgirl doctor, and three catgirls who are gradually introduced throughout the books. The overall story is nice and relaxed. They overcome their minor troubles with their love and trust and it's generally very cute.


I do, however, have some troubles with the more serious plotlines; one that's about a member of a catgirl slave trading ring, and one about a loan shark that's trying to seize an orphanage (I won't go into details because spoilers).


I have no problems with them being included, but rather that they feel too detached from the main cast's actions to really be included.


In the first book, the slave trader is more or less mentioned thrice; once when Chris saves the first catgirl (and they talk to the police), once when there's an update on the situation, and once when he's caught. It's similar to the loan shark, other than him attacking the main cast twice before he's caught. The main cast isn't very included in the capture of him, so it feels kind of unnecessary to include those parts at all.


I get that the main cast is supposed to be "normal people", but a plotline where they're barely involved with feels odd to include.


The characters, however, are very nice; Chris feels a bit too… "OP" socially, despite being played off as a "normal dude", but I'll just play that off as him being a harem anime main character. It's not ruining the story or anything.


The, arguably, most important part of a book like this, the girls, are very nice. They're different enough for you to drive able to differentiate between them, and they also don't just fit into a certain character trope, like a lot of anime inspired harem authors tend to do. They're all distinct characters that you can enjoy. 


It's also a manageable amount of them. Three's the magic number after all.


In general, if you've read Varnell's American Kitsune, as well as the Visual Novel Nekopara, you will most likely have a good idea of what this book will be.


And it's also a perfect way to practice your poker face. Especially if you listen to this in public. Trust me, I know.


Anyway, another great book by Brandon that won't disappoint the fans. 8/10

This was awesome

I loved these I can’t wait for American kitsune to come out on audible I hope u use Jessica threat and Christopher Boucher n American kitsune
