I created a post a while back about books we could read with the ending of the main Green Ember series. Since the recent announcement of Mr Smith, stating he has finished writing the next book I thought I would repost this for those looking for books to tie them over. This has been updated.

I will post some below on this and will jump back in to give some other works as well, that I have read or are on my reading list (I will state which ones I have not read).

For those who would like books in the same vein (talking animals) as the Green Ember (these are in no particular order):

1) The Redwall Series: Lighter reading with predictable plotlines, but still very enjoyable reads

a. Jacques also has another series Castaways from the Flying Dutchman that maybe of interest

2) Beyond the Western Deep: A dark fantasy webcomic series for all ages that updates every Saturday, the main characters are squirrels, otters, cats (of various types), and some others

a. At this point they are on the fourth chapter of the series

b. Link to the beginning of the series:

3) The Voyages of Dr. Doolittle: One of my top favorite books and enjoyable read

4) Watership Down: Another good book and one of my favorites, it is more intense the Green Ember, and the rabbits act more like real-life rabbits

a. If you enjoy this book, I recombined reding the follow-up Tales from Watership Down

5) Of course, The Mistmantle Chronicles: I have not read these works, though they are on my list

6) Fifteen Rabbits: By the author of Bambi(the book on which the movie is based), is another work I have not read, but reviews point to this booking being in the same vein as Watership Down, and thus a bit more intense then Green Ember (think dead baby rabbits)

7) The Chronicles of Narnia: Another series I enjoy and have read multiple times.

a. You may also what to look at C.S. Lewis’s Out of a Silent Plaint, the first book of his Cosmic or Space Trilogy

b. I would also recommend The Screwtape Letters

8) The Five Realms by Kieran Larwood: The big selling point of this work is its a #rabbitswithswords. I have read this series, it is quite enjoyable and does have something of the same feel as the Green Ember series.

I will be back with some other recommendations that do not have talking animals. If anyone has any other books they would recommend reading, please comment below.
