Amygdala by Sam Fennah - Book Teaser
Amygdala is a story of animals born to a world of swirling fractal chaos, who learned the art of civilisation. Forged in fire and metal was their government, ruled only by the objective truth of all things, with no room for incompetence, mercy, or even morality. With subjective virtues cast aside, their city, 'The Underbirth', holds within it the greatest collection of animal intellects, 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 beautiful. But amidst the wonder of a culture ruled by the laws of nature, some are gripped by fear. And some wish for change… at any cost.
