D.R. Hill
D. R. Hill lives with his partner in the rural county of Devon, England. Graduating with a BSc in Biomedical Science from Queen Mary University of London in 2014, he left university without a plan, with an uncertain future, and a lengthy unfinished manuscript. After a short period of soul searching, D. R. Hill took a job at a local landscaping company and got to work writing. That manuscript quickly evolved and divided over the years that followed, finally becoming The Archmage Saga with the first entry, Rise Of The Apostate, making it to print in May 2018. Today, he continues to work for the same landscaping company whilst spending every minute he can writing, hoping one day to rival the likes of J. R. R. Tolkien or Arthur C. Clarke.
