Billy Cotsis is an author, documentary filmmaker and a failed athlete. He once ran for the bus....

Billy Cotsis and 1 other person liked Evan Binos's review of The Aegean Seven Take Back the Stolen Marbles: "Do yourselves a favour and read this tale of marbles, theft, and recovery. Plenty of intrigue culminating with the restoration of the marbles to the rightful owners, with the help of Varangian guards."
