About this listen

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?

The characters designs, and the interesting plot.

I'm a sucker for a good story about differing approaches to life, philosophy, and politics.

Really really good read and audiobook!

I usually don't read novels since I have adhd and it is hard for me to fully sit through a book but this book really grabbed my interest! I would listen to the audiobook and read at the same time and it felt super submersive, especially with the beautiful music and the depth of the characters. The world building is truly captivating and I would highly recommend this book!

Absolute cinema

The depiction of the political sides having proper discourse and backing ,and the intricate actions of the characters intertwining with each other, "You believe ruin is wrought by ruinous individuals, ah, but what were they before, little, like you and me Lacemaker. You believe your motion will not stir the water? Everyone believes that and here we are drowning in waves."- Sally Sefton
