One of the stories in it involved a wolf and a cat spy who had their minds erased for commuting espionage. On earth a spy couple died while on a mission. They found themselves in the empty bodies of the wolf and the cat on another world. So a person could die on earth and find themselves pulled into an empty body on a parallel world. It could work the other way too. It wouldn't happen very often because you don't often find a healthy adult body with an empty mind and no soul.

Hopefully, that fanboy would be a biologist or someone familiar with animal behavior! Most of the species on the trio's world communicate not only with spoken language, but also with body language and scent. The position of a tail, ears, or whiskers can be just as revealing as stating one's thoughts vocally. So if that fanboy found himself in an anthropomorphic body somehow, I hope like hell he knows how to use that body's features!
