About the Author :
Basically, PR Garcia is a crazy not-too-gray-haired old lady who decided at the age of 61 to write a book. Hoping to write one, she astonishingly wrote the six book Europa Series. And they're damn good!!!!! Now for a more traditional overview: PR Garcia was born during the winter of 1951 in Monroe County, Michigan, the youngest of three children. After graduating from St. Mary's Academy, she went on to Western Michigan University where she majored in zoology. Although zoology and paleontology were her passion, she spent most of her life as a civil servant worker. She became an award winning basket weaver, carrying on the tradition of her maternal grandmother, Margaret Dark Feather. In 2008 she moved to southern California to be near her daughter and granddaughter. Shortly after her arrival she began to volunteer at the Birch Aquarium of Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California and became a team member on the Gray whale touring boats. The following year she joined the Whalers, a dedicated group of individuals from the San Diego Natural History Museum of San Diego whose love of the Pacific cetaceans and other marine life off the shores of California matched her own As a guide on the Whaling boats for both the Aquarium and the Natural History Museum, she introduced people from around the world to the wonders of the Pacific cetaceans. An avid Science Fiction fan from practically the time he could walk, she combined her knowledge of these beautiful giants of the ocean with her love of science fiction, and created an exciting, new series of an alien race from Jupiter's moon Europa who have lived in our deep oceans for thousands of years and a seven thousand years old curse to eradicate them from the universe. Using legends and known ancient landmarks from Earth's past combined with current astrological findings about Europa, she has woven a story of intrigue, mystery, magic and adventure.
