Archibald Grey writes novellas and short stories for fans of the surreal, the unsettling, and the uncanny. His books create a reading experience that sits somewhere between science fiction and horror. Sometimes body horror and gore, sometimes subterranean techno-utopias, and sometimes normal-seeming worlds full of existential dread. Whatever the scenario, there’s always a surreal twist.

Archie’s approach to storytelling is thoroughly thought through. Real, complex, and ambiguous characters in surreal situations. Making the unreal real and the irrational rational. Dialogue and actions are described in clear language, while exploring deep themes and intricate story-lines. Even his simple adventure stories wrestle with difficult questions in psychology, sociology, ethics, and economics, but the focus is always on the concrete experiences of the people caught up in these wacky unreal realities.
