Phill is the award winning author of a number of novels and short stories.
‘Paradise Girl’, Book 1 of Phill’s REBOOT trilogy, is set in the northern hills where, amidst the majestic beauty of the rolling moors, a world pandemic consigns a lone young woman to a bleak future. In Book 2, ‘Aftershocks’, her twin brother sets out to discover the truth behind the infection. REBOOT concludes with ‘Jericho Rose’. By now the pandemic is over and it’s time to rebuild. However, there are a selfish few who seek to exploit the situation for their own ends and this risks losing the little that’s left.
Phill’s fourth novel, ‘The God Jar’, is a tale of magic and mystery which straddles 16th century Europe and 20th century England.

But have they found the jar or has it found them?
