A field guide to Discworld’s peculiar creatures

Part illustrated bestiary, part collection of in-world expertise, this guide surveys the creatures and critters of Discworld. Its subjects range from the Terrible Man-Eating Sloth of Clup and the Ambiguous Puzuma to the cosmically significant ducks mentioned in the description. Guidance on creature care and eating habits gives the entries a practical frame, while contributions from Rincewind and other Discworld voices add to the book’s presentation of this fanciful natural history.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Discworld readers interested in its creatures and worldbuilding
  • Fans of illustrated fantasy reference books
  • Readers who enjoy fictional bestiaries and in-world guides

Book overview

A comprehensive illustrated guide to the creatures and critters of Discworld, packed with wisdom from the great minds of the Disc as well as interjections from some of its more unconventional thinkers.

Discover the best way to care for the Terrible Man-Eating Sloth of Clup, the eating habits of the Ambiguous Puzuma, and marvel at the startling prevalence of ominous ducks in cosmic matters.

Wriggling with insights, crawling with wisdom and packed with extra advice from Rincewind, Unseen University's latest (and reluctant) adjunct professor of Perplexing Beasts and curator of its curiobiological museum.
