Tale from the Archives is a set of short stories by Pip Ballantine and Tee Morris that expand the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences universe. These stories spotlight characters and events beyond the scope of the main novels, giving readers a wider view of the Ministry and its agents.
The tales range from holiday-themed adventures to stories rooted in New Zealand mythology. Many were first released as podcast episodes before being published in written form. They work best as supplements to the main series, though each story stands on its own.
