A Dark Sun Rises (The Anna Series, #4) / The Anna Series (ePub)

Born in San Diego, California, I attended Brown Military Academy and then San Diego Military Academy (SDMA) for my college prep education. I still correspond with a number of my SDMA classmates.



I attended The University of the Seven Seas (now Semester at Sea) in 1965 as a freshman. On the third day of the trip, I met my future wife, Susie Orr.
