Fangless: Book One is about a young smilodon named Fangless. Fangless was born at "the Place of Thin Ice," a well known place named for the thin layers of ice that cover the deep, icy waters below. After receiving a dream given by Shashthi, the smilodon kit goddess, Fangless' mother, May-Paw, must follow Shashthi's instructions to give birth to Fangless at the Place of Thin Ice. If not, Fangless will meet a certain terrible fate, followed shortly after by death itself.
Soon after May-Paw's kit's birth, the ice breaks under both her and Fangless' paws. He is swept out into the icy waters aboard a drifting sheet of ice, but miraculously survives his nightmare of a journey and is then pushed ashore. Fangless is found by an ex-mother smilodon named Flower who left her bloodthirsty clan after her cruel ex-leader named Asesino murdered her only kit for being blind and weak - an outcast. Flower takes Fangless under her care and protection naming him "Fangless" because he was born without fangs, thus making him an outcast as well.
