Customer Reviews

An almost unbelievable character!

John has been a friend of mine for many years now, and I've always been amazed at some of the absurd and hilarioius situations that he finds himself in. I'm glad that he finally got a few of them in print. The reader of these stories may find some of them hard to believe, but if they ever got a chance to meet John in person, they'd soon realize just how true they all are. I know of a great many more that didn't make it into the book for various reasons -subject still alive; litigation; self-incrimination; etc.- that seem much more far fetched that some of the vignettes presented in "Shiva's......" John is perhaps the warmest, and friendliest person I know, as well as one of the most intellegent, which makes the book even more interesting. For her part, Ann MacDonald did a fabulous job of collecting and editing John's stories and presenting them in a clear and concise manner. I KNOW that without Ann, John could never have completed this book.
