Marc Daniels is a Northern California author who spent much of his career in corporate America working across various technology industries. A lifelong fan of science fiction and fantasy, he grew up on late-night Creature Features, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, and the original Star Wars. Military history has always been close to home: his father served as an Army MP in Berlin when the Wall went up, and his wife, Robin, is a retired Army major with 23 years of service. After decades of putting writing behind career and family, retirement finally gave him time to develop the stories he had been carrying for years. When he is not writing, he cooks, reads voraciously, keeps marine reef aquariums, farms coral, tackles small building projects, and listens to just about every kind of music.
