The Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences is a steampunk series set in Victorian-era Britain, where a secret government ministry handles supernatural and unexplained phenomena. Co-written by Tee Morris and Pip Ballantine, the series began with Phoenix Rising in 2011 and ran through seven novels, multiple novellas, and related shorter works.

The pairing of strait-laced archivist Wellington Books with fearless agent Eliza Braun gives the series a buddy-cop dynamic wrapped in Victorian gadgetry and occult threats. The books grew more ambitious as the series progressed, with Dawn’s Early Light taking the action to America and The Diamond Conspiracy raising the political stakes. A companion series of Tales from the Archives volumes expanded the world further.
