Beast Complex, Vol. 1

Six short stories that set the scene for the best-selling BEASTARS series!

A crocodile and a gazelle must find a way to work together as chef and assistant on a cooking show with flagging ratings. A fox and a chameleon wrestle with stereotypes about each other and themselves. And much more…
