Tony Moyle was born in the small town of Shepton Mallet in 1976. He's spent the last four decades attempting to find a third reason for the town to be famous behind Babycham and a Frank Bruno heavy weight boxing fight. Although he studied Chemistry at Exeter University he was terrible at it and instead fell into a role within the business community. After twenty years of deliberation and prevarication he published his first novel, 'The Limpet Syndrome.' His second novel, and sequel, 'Soul Catchers' is out in November 2017.

Tony Moyle and 2 other people liked David's review of The Idiots' Club: "One of the best random finds I've ever had at a library book sale. Why would you want to read a book about a bunch of idiots? Because we're all idiots in some ways, and we all seek what these men do: camaraderie. Now, these men may not be aware that " Read more of this review »

“There are many things in science that were developed because it was possible rather than desirable. Humanity's curiosity will almost certainly be its downfall.”

“Real power isn't the ability to harm or meddle, Real power is overcoming your frailty when every sinew of your mind tells you it's impossible. Real power is facing up to your problems when you want to hid from them. Real power is picking yourself up from a fall and redoubling your efforts. Real power is the strength to choose what is right.”
― Tony Moyle, The Limpet Syndrome
