(I mean, where they wear clothes and have their own societies - they all seem pretty disturbing one way or another and I swore off them all after Redwall and Robin Jarvis. If humans meet a animal that happens to talk, that's fine, of course.)
I have not read Robin Jarvis—I assume it is the same kind of anthropomorphism as opposed to the Richard Adams animals-that-live-like-animals model? The thing that was weirdest for me about Redwall was the way the first book clearly took place in the interstices and hedgerows of our own world, with carts and horses and barn cats and so forth, and then by Mossflower we are clearly in some secondary world populated almost strictly by small mammals and birds. Even in elementary school, I noticed the switch.
