Archibald Finch and the Lost Witches introduces us to Archibald, a nervous boy with quirks that earn him plenty of eye-rolls, especially from his older sister, Hailee. Life takes a turn for the worse when his parents move the family from London to his grandmother’s eerie manor in the English countryside.

Now, Archibald must contend with hairless dolls in the library, peculiar stone creatures on the roof, and a sinister forest at the edge of the backyard. However, these soon prove to be the least of his concerns.

While exploring the vast house one day, Archibald discovers a curious globe that transports him to a secret world, hidden for 500 years. He embarks on a thrilling adventure brimming with medieval magic, mysterious symbols, and the strangest beasts. Meanwhile, Hailee, having witnessed her brother’s disappearance, sets out on a daring quest to find him.

About the Author

Michel Guyon was born in France, in a small medieval town perched on a rock, surrounded by high walls, with the remains of an ancient fortress at its heart. That's where the author had his first brush with ancient myths, puzzling legends, and dark tales of the Middle Ages. Since then, Michel has learned a thing or two about mining for clues and connecting the dots, mainly as an investigative journalist for newspapers and magazines. While his childhood fed his fertile imagination, his travels as a reporter, from Bosnia to Afghanistan, were crucial in shaping his view of the world.
