Publisher Description
Amygdala is a story of animals, born to a world of swirling, fractal chaos, who learned the art of civilization. Their government was forged in fire, ruled only by the objective truth of all things, with no room for incompetence, mercy, or even morality. Their city, 'The Underbirth', holds within it the greatest collection of animal minds, born of mechanical systems designed to test everything: natural, cultural, industrial selection. Their art is beguiling, their science boundless, their bodies strong and lean and perfect.
And yet, amidst the beauty of a culture ruled by absolute competence, some begin to ask: what is the cost of civilization? When do animals stop being animals? Is there another way?
-Illustrated by Sam Fennah & Carmen K. Jones
Customer Reviews
Absolutely breathtaking.
I read through this too quickly because now I crave more of this new world and these amazing creatures. I’ve been a fan for the past 6 years and seeing how far the old crew of Satellite City has come always brings joy to my heart. Thank you for this creation, Sam Fennah ❤️
Can this book you get easily hooked? Yes, it can
I spend 7-9 hours reading it non stop with breaks between because I can’t stop reading it after the first chapter. This story offers so much with the characters and their arcs. It switches narrative so smoothly that I can just slide story after story. The plot got me reeling with emotion and the fact that I watch the YouTube series of Satellite City (A suppose continuation of events after the book ALTHOUGH is not canon), now feels like my view of the characters and their traits just got magnifying. I am curious though if their relationship to one another will still follow and how it may prelude to it. And although I’m not one for political drama, i follow this so easily even with is complexity for it feels like my mind has expanded with each character’s words and ideals. Still though, they continue to have me floored with their unpredictably nature and sudden actions that I can barely recovered. I guess you can say that’s their charm so one can never truly understands them. Like wild animals that hides their feral nature behind sophisticated, civil masks. Regardless, is just BOOK ONE so that fact is continuing has me anticipating the next book. Looking forward to see upcoming animations base from this book and what follows!
