I had some nice reviews on Amazon, so just wanted to share:

"Thanks Soner. I lived in Cyprus as a child (a British Forces child), actually on the dividing line in Limassol. Here, I first experienced discrimination...against the Turkish people. So saying, I feel there has been such tragedy for both Greek and Turkish Cypriots and to really under stand what has happened we need to hear the true stories and listen to the impact that false nationalism has on the people that get caught up in the battle. Please read this story of one family's experience. You will laugh and you will cry," - D

"It was really interesting reading this, Being a greek cypriot myself, and having lived in the North of Cyprus at the time of the 1974 invasion, it was good to see what Soner experienced in the war, a good eye opener.
" - NW

"A really fascinating, informative and easy read upon the experience of a child (the writer) caught up in the troubles of Cyprus in 1974. Soner provides a balanced perspective on the events that unfolded that summer and how it affected the families on the island of Cyprus. As a regular visitor of Cyprus, both North and South, i found the book very gripping and had finished it within a couple of days." - JR

"Fantastic insight into how it really was. Gave me a far greater understanding of the situation and the reason the Turkish army was seen as the saviour of the Turkish Cypriots. Very well written but also very entertaining written from a child's personal experience." - AC

"Compelling account for anyone who is interested in the 1974 cyprus troubles." - LR

"I live in North Cyprus so found Soner's account of the '74 conflict very interesting. Very easy to read and difficult to put down! I read the whole tale in one sitting." - L

Lovely to see...… I didn't know there was a dividing line through Limassol though.

We were stationed at RAF Nicosia & spent lazy days in Nicosia able as service people to cross the green line with ease.
We were lucky in that we were posted back in March '74, but heard of the school bus going to Dhekelia came under fire.
