Description
“Archie Sharp’s second visit to his grandfather’s house that summer was a lot less pleasant than the first. But we will get to the second visit later.”
When his parents abandon him at Grandpa’s house for the summer, curious Archie Sharp finds himself shockingly offline and alone with no one for company except a spiteful, unhappy old man and a strange tree that may or may not want to eat him. Disaster.
But Archie has other plans. He’s already found a secret key and the way to escape to the weird world of the Invisible Emporium – a place where time flows differently, magical beings come for supplies and the mysterious storekeeper Enoch is looking for a new assistant…
As Archie gets to know the characters, creatures and capers of the Otherworld, he starts to see that he has swapped one life-threatening situation for another. And someone who once loved the Emporium would now prefer to destroy it. Archie must join the mission to find Enoch’s previous assistant, save some dead souls and stop the Invisible Emporium crumbling to dust – and in the process make his Grandpa happy again.
Archie & The Invisible Emporium is part of the ‘Our Weird World’ series of surprising, suspenseful and strange stories for middle grade readers - children aged 8-12. You can read the series in any order. A kind of ‘Stranger Things’ for kids, these books mix real-world problems with paranormal themes and will appeal to fans of Harry Potter, Story Thieves, Keeper Of The Lost Cities and The Dark Is Rising, as well as authors like Ross Wexford, Ross Montgomery and Neil Gaiman.
“Enoch gave a low growl. ‘I’ve been robbed!’ he rasped. ‘And time is back!’ He almost spat the words out, unable to raise his voice above a loud whisper. ‘Time is back, and everything will go to ruin!’”
