The Bear Grylls Survival Skills series covers eighteen books published between 2017 and 2019, with each entry focused on a specific skill or environment rather than following a narrative thread. The first wave of ten titles from 2017 covers foundational topics: Knots, Dangers and Emergencies, Hiking, Tracking, Weather Watching, Signalling, First Aid, Shelter Building, Dangerous Plants, and Dangerous Animals.

From 2018 the series shifted toward terrain-based entries — Mountains, Rainforest, Desert, and Polar — before the final 2019 titles rounded out the range with Nutrition, Summer, Winter, and Extreme Environments. Because each book addresses a distinct subject, readers can pick up individual titles based on interest rather than needing to follow a fixed order through all eighteen.
