NEWS JUST IN : Andy Onyx writes again, “Zietgiesty new spy novel THE OKTOBERIST reimagines both London and Dublin in a dystopian near-future, where rogue AIgents mess with human frailty and the geopolitical East/West End-Game reaches its zenith…on Halloween.” More here
WHO IS ANDY ONYX?
Our man arrived on the planet, specifically West Yorkshire, in 1969, with English, Irish and Jamaican heritage. He was raised shortly after in the small seaside town of Skegness, Lincolnshire, on the bracing east-coast of the UK.
He has been based in London for a quarter of a century.
The on page journey began with the medley memoir dadless- indie published through Microdot Press in 2019, and now available in paperback, kindle and audio (narrated by Andy).
Then came the BARBELL trilogy of spy/fiction novels 👇🏼
The third instalment Like Dolphins will take you to the Glast-spy-bury of Berlin, via Amsterdam with the BARBELL agents Breakspear and Kestrel in Autumn, 1989.

Whilst having lived as, among other things, a musician, painter, martial artist and educator, Onyx is more Take Five than ‘i5 these days and writes mainly from research and imagination.
In the midst of working on long form novels he occasionally blogs, posts and contributes to the spybrary podcast.
At the turn of the century, as the music industry died, Andy’s songs were given life in the studio and on stage culminating with the solo album Way of the Stone featuring luminaries from, Primal Scream, the Style Council, Galliano and the Heliocentrics, streaming currently on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube.
Onyx is always at it, off road, out of lane and immersed in the whole process of flow and creativity, ‘It’s all Lego and stickle bricks to me.’ –Andy Onyx
