George Kissamitakis

Biography

My name is George Kissamitakis and I am a writer of Greek and British heritage, raised on the island of Crete, Greece, a place where myths are not mere stories, but the wind in the rocky hills and the salt on the stones of ancient ruins.

  My writing is inspired in this landscape, blending the deep resonance of my surroundings with a lifelong passion for fantasy. For over a decade, I have explored the duality of life and death, the weight of memory, the search for identity, and the quiet echoes of the divine in the human world through stories and poetry.

Godslayer is the culmination of that journey: a novel born from the lifelong conversation between language and myth.

By profession, I am also a teacher of English. I have authored educational books that weave storytelling with pedagogy, aimed at engaging students who are learning English as a foreign language. I continue to teach, write, and listen for the old stories in the Cretan wind.
