Matt Whyman’s non-fiction catalog is remarkably wide-ranging. His animal books — Oink!, Walking with Sausage Dogs, and The Unexpected Genius of Pigs — blend personal memoir with natural history and humor. His earlier non-fiction tackled teen issues directly, with XY and books on topics like smoking and drinking aimed at young readers.
More recently, he has written companion books for major media properties (Good Omens) and behind-the-scenes sports journalism (Inside Mercedes F1). The common thread is Whyman’s ability to write engagingly about whatever catches his interest, whether that’s pig intelligence or racing strategy.
