Summary

A compendium of 100 of the planet's weird and wonderful creatures that come at night.

Most of us assume that living creatures prefer the sunlit hours of daytime. However, when the sun sets and the stars emerge, the planet truly comes alive. Creatures of Darkness takes readers on an extraordinary global journey, revealing the hidden world of 100 nocturnal species that thrive when the lights go out.

Plunge into the darkest depths of the ocean and discover how life flourishes in the very darkness humans often overlook.

This book will not only change the way you perceive the natural world but also ignite a sense of wonder and curiosity about the incredible creatures that thrive in the shadows. Embark on this illuminating journey and see how the darkness of night reveals the brilliance of nature.
