Summary
Beasts of Britain is an audiobook by Andy McGrath, a cryptozoology "enthusiast" who has spent more than 25 years of researching and obsessing about the unknown creatures living right under our noses here on this tiny island in the North Atlantic.
From a wildlife point of view, the accepted fauna of the British Isles were discovered and catalogued in their finite and immovable state in the 19th century. Nothing has really been added to this list or considered worthy since, and the continual reports of water monsters, bigfoot, mystery big cats and UFCs (unidentified flying cryptids) are largely ignored or used as newspaper fillers to entertain us. Andy's focus is on current research and sightings, pictures, videos, and eyewitness accounts of the many cryptids of the British Isles.
Although vast advancements in science and technology have brought great discoveries in other lesser known parts of the world, our island lies largely underexplored and overlooked. At night, outside of the busy cities and next to the unlit lakes and lonely mountains it is an island in darkness, where nobody ventures into the woods anymore and the pervading paradigm scare all but the most foolhardy scientists away from any serious investigation of the many yet to be discovered.

Worth a Listen But One-Sided
While Andy goes into his narrative with a completely open mind, by halfway through its clear he is dedicated to proving that the animals he believes to be real can and do exist. He disregards any theories or evidence contrary to this and is unprofessionally credulous when looking at eyewitness testimonies. The possibility of a supernatural explanation is brushed off early on which is odd as this theory is no less likely than lake "monsters" travelling through tunnels at night to avoid being spotted!
