Ricky Gervais Books in Order

This illustrated field guide introduces imaginary creatures whose peculiar bodies and behavior often undermine their survival. Gervais describes their habits, life cycles, and encounters with one another in a comic parody of natural history.

A second guide expands the Flanimal kingdom with additional creatures and accounts of their struggle for survival. Evolutionary charts, a beginner’s look at anatomy, and a spotter’s guide explore the workings of this improbable ecosystem.

The underwater origins of Flanimal life provide the starting point for another illustrated natural history. Gervais traces unlikely evolutionary transformations and introduces the creatures and plant life that inhabit the depths of his imaginary world.

Gervais introduces the Blugs, a varied assortment of flying and crawling invertebrates, in another illustrated guide to Flanimals. Strange transformations and creatures such as Movs, Bants and Zubs lead to the sinister Bletchling.

Gervais’s imaginary creatures appear in a movable field guide exploring their evolution, behavior, and environments. Pop-ups and flaps accompany comic descriptions of airborne predators, ill-behaved beasts, and creatures whose adaptations make survival unexpectedly difficult.
