Pheby's second novel, Playthings, was described as "the best neuro-novel ever written" in Literary Review.[4] The novel deals with the true case of Daniel Paul Schreber, a 19th-century German judge affected by schizophrenia, who was committed to an asylum. In 2016, Playthings was shortlisted for the £30,000 Wellcome Book Prize.[5] His third novel, Lucia,, concerning the suspected schizophrenic daughter of James Joyce, released in 2018 was joint winner of the Republic of Consciousness Prize.[6] He is also the author of Grace, published by Two Ravens Press.
Mordew, published in 2020 by Galley Beggar Press, is the first of a trilogy of fantasy novels. Critics have praised the world building, the balance between "invention and familiarity", and described the novel as "dizzying".[7][8][9]
