Looking for recommendations for series from animals point of view (discuss.online)

Looking for an interesting series, where the books are written from animals point of view. Kind of like Orwell's Animal Farm, but more fantasy / sci-fi / action.

We may follow a group of fighting turtle, or a rat's journey to home after getting lost, things like that. If taking example from movies, Ant Z is an example.

Any recommendations?

Hollow Kingdom by Kira Jane Buxton is amazing, although the follow up isn't as good.

Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time is also amazing, though, again, the follow up isn't as good.

If singular books are OK, there's Ka: Dar Oakley in the Ruin of Ymr by John Crowley.

I could give more titles because I love books from the animal perspective, but these are my sci-fi/fantasy recs. I also second Watership Down.
