Matt Whyman has had an unusually varied career, spanning teenage problem pages, YA thrillers, dark comedy, and non-fiction about everything from mini-pigs to Formula 1 racing. His fiction tends toward the dark and surprising — The Savages follows a family of suburban cannibals trying to keep their secret, while Boy Kills Man deals with child assassins in Colombia.
His non-fiction is lighter in tone, with Oink!: My Life with Mini-Pigs and Walking with Sausage Dogs appealing to animal lovers, while The Unexpected Genius of Pigs takes a more scientific approach. He also wrote the official companion book for the Good Omens TV series and Inside Mercedes F1, showing a willingness to work across wildly different subjects.
