The new non-fiction work, January 2026:
Everything you ever wanted to know about Greece but were too afraid to ask
“PURE GOLD! Informative, thorough, and HILARIOUS!”
If you want to impress your friends with your knowledge of all things Greek in general, then this is the book for you. Next time you’re participating in a pub quiz, expect to win the Greek round hands down. The only problem is, there’s rarely a round specifically about Greece. Ah well, you can’t win ‘em all. And anyway, there’s always a first time.
If you’re planning to visit Greece and want to familiarise yourself with some of the basics, this book is a good place to start if you want to know the essentials about this most unique country. It will entertain, annoy, but also educate you enough to enhance your visit, and that’s enough to make it highly recommended reading, which it is.
Oh, and it might help the author pay a bill or two.

This is a treat if you want an easy read knowledge of all things Greek.
Some tongue in cheek quips making it an easy read. Great deal of information in an unusual format drives one onwards to discover more about this majestic country. Thank you for taking the effort to research and write it. I will read it again soon as so much to take in. Highly recommended.

This is a treat... Do yourself a favour and grab a copy because listening to John talk is like the English equivalent of a fireside chat, or in this case, being with a friend in a taverna where the stories get funnier the more you drink.
