R. A. Lamb

R.A. Lamb was sent to Northern Alaska by his company as an exploration geologist to study mountain ranges in the Arctic. He did live in a tent camp, fly by helicopter to the mountaintops he was studying and make his way to the valley floor to meet his chopper to fly again another day. He saw bears, caribou and golden eagles to mention a few, meet many Alaskan natives including one in a sod hut on an Arctic peninsula where he made a trade for the Ivory Bear.

The episodes and characters in this book are fictional, however, the settings are based on personal experiences. Not only has he set foot in every place depicted but during his youth he also changed schools several times, faced bullies and had to face up.

R.A. writes mostly YA and Middle Grade adventure stories although he has written several picture books for younger children.

He strives to supply sufficient description to let you the reader feel you are in the midst of the fantasy as it unfolds, but beware, not all paths are predictable. What's the fun of living in the story if everything leads to the obvious.

He and his wife live in the Woodlands, Texas near Houston and in his spare time can be found on the golf course or at his lake house either fishing or in a swing on the porch watching the sail boats in the marina.
