Amygdala

De: Sam Fennah

Narrado por: Sam Fennah

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.

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

An epic story of an impossible world

This story is wonderful, full of intrigue, mystery, thrills, love, heartbreak and joy. It’s a fantastical setting that has a unique feeling.

Literature Art

This book and audiobook are art. Sam Fennah or Fennah on YouTube is a philosophical Artist. this book's explorations of ideas is masterful.

Absolutely amazing!!

The story, music, and the reading of the author was just breathtaking! I loved this!

Captivating

I can’t wait for the next part. I waited so long for this book and for the author to also do the narration is incredible.

best book I've ever read

I will not deny that the reading and even writing of the beginning of the book is a little rough around the edges but I am so enthralled by this book. the writing get smoother, the ideas weaving together, the detail ripe scenes, reading this book is reading amazing story ideas explode with creativity! it is hard to write a book, especially with so many factors, but seeing the passion that is put into this book really makes it bloom. I cannot wait for more!

creative world

Loved the bizarre and wonderful world created here. The artist really made something new and special.

I enjoyed the book.

There’s a lot to like in the book the world, the characters and the mechanics of their existence. However, I do feel the could’ve used a little bit more depth but that could be it is his first book

Awesome Story/Music is a bit too much...

This story is amazing! I truly adored almost every minute of it.
My only complaint being the music, although beautiful and lovely compositions, tends to be very repetitive in some of the later chapters and thus, VERY distracting.
The songs sung by the characters (Harlow, Dreamweaver, etc...) are incredible and very appropriate in placement. It was mainly the drawn out compositions at the end of certain chapters or the, for lack of a proper term, fluff music. Music that seems to be present and repeated just to extend time with a chapter. That music did become very distracting and drew too much from the story itself. I admit to skipping to the next chapter just to get away from it.
Beyond that musical nitpick, this was an incredible listen and well written story.
Good job Fennah family! You should all be very proud!
