Yavuz Oruc was born in Ezinepazar, a small village of about 50 households in Anatolia where his father was the only elementary school teacher and his mother was a homemaker. His father was later appointed to one of the elementary schools in Amasya—a historical city in Anatolia where the Greek geographer Strabon was born and lived. Yavuz grew up and went to school there. One of his mentors early on was his English teacher who inspired him to enjoy reading and writing. Yavuz later graduated from Amasya High School and moved to Ankara where he studied and received his B.Sc. in electrical engineering at the Middle East Technical University.

Karaladığım şeyler ABD'de basıldığı için amazon.com ve ona benzer birçok uluslararası sitelerden edinilebiliyor (Ögretmen'in sayfasının amazon düğmesinin yanındaki "stores" düğmesine dokunarak diğer siteleri görmek mümkün). Türkiye'de basım ve dağıtım genel olarak sorunlu. Öğretmen'in dağıtımı için bir iki yayıneviyle iletişimde bulundum ama henüz elle tutulur bir sonuç yok. Şu an Öğretmen'in İngilizceye çevirimine odaklandığım için maalesef bu işe ayıracak yeterli zamanım yok. Merak eden okurların bir şekilde yazdıklarıma ulaşacağını umuyorum. Bir değişiklik olursa size iletirim. (less)

Anlatımı akıcı ama kurgusu zayıf bir polisiye romanı. Romanın ilerleyen bölümlerine serpiştirilen cinayetler, kurguyu ana konudan (Engin'in katilinin bulunması) fazla uzaklaştırmış. Karakterlerin tasviri fena değil ama bazı karakterler, örneğin Kara ...more
