More copies of "The Green Line - Holiday in a Warzone - Cyprus 1974" now available at Best Seller Bookstore in Karakum, both in English and also in Turkish. Get one now if you haven't already read it, or buy one as a gift for a friend or family member.

A book worth reading for anyone living here or with an interest in Cyprus.

Just downloaded this to my iPad and looking forward to a good read and some old memories as I was stationed at Nicosia Airport UN Camp on the morning the fighter jets came from Turkey and bombed the airport runways etc.

I loved this book and did not want it to end. In parts it's sad and also funny at the same time, but a great interpretation from a young boys experience in Cyprus. Soner tells the story excellently. I would recommend it to everyone, it's a great read.

Thank you all for your lovely comments. Glad that you had enjoyed reading my book. As for writing another, nothing yet in the pipe-line, but, the itch is there.

I’ve looked for end of a friendship on amazon but couldn’t find it. Do you know the name of the author?
