Both the valley and the coast would serve as settings for some of his best fiction. In 1919 he went to Stanford University, where he intermittently enrolled in literature and writing courses until he left in 1925 without taking a degree. During the next five years he supported himself as a laborer and journalist in New York City, all the time working on his first novel, \u003cb\u003eCup of Gold\u003c\/b\u003e (1929).\u003cbr\u003eAfter marriage and a move to Pacific Grove, he published two California books, \u003cb\u003eThe Pastures of Heaven\u003c\/b\u003e (1932) and \u003cb\u003eTo a God Unknown\u003c\/b\u003e (1933), and worked on short stories later collected in \u003cb\u003eThe Long Valley\u003c\/b\u003e (1938). Popular success and financial security came only with \u003cb\u003eTortilla Flat \u003c\/b\u003e(1935), stories about Monterey's paisanos. A ceaseless experimenter throughout his career, Steinbeck changed courses regularly.

Both the valley and the coast would serve as settings for some of his best fiction. In 1919 he went to Stanford University, where he intermittently enrolled in literature and writing courses until he left in 1925 without taking a degree. During the next five years he supported himself as a laborer and journalist in New York City, all the time working on his first novel, \u003ci\u003eCup of Gold\u003c\/i\u003e (1929). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e After marriage and a move to Pacific Grove, he published two California books, \u003ci\u003eThe Pastures of Heaven\u003c\/i\u003e (1932) and \u003ci\u003eTo a God Unknown\u003c\/i\u003e (1933), and worked on short stories later collected in \u003ci\u003eThe Long Valley\u003c\/i\u003e (1938). Popular success and financial security came only with \u003ci\u003eTortilla Flat\u003c\/i\u003e (1935), stories about Monterey's paisanos. A ceaseless experimenter throughout his career, Steinbeck changed courses regularly. Three powerful novels of the late 1930s focused on the California laboring class: \u003ci\u003eIn Dubious Battle\u003c\/i\u003e (1936), \u003ci\u003eOf Mice and Men\u003c\/i\u003e (1937), and the book considered by many his finest, \u003ci\u003eThe Grapes of Wrath\u003c\/i\u003e (1939). \u003ci\u003eThe Grapes of Wrath\u003c\/i\u003e won both the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize in 1939. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Early in the 1940s, Steinbeck became a filmmaker with \u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten Village\u003c\/i\u003e (1941) and a serious student of marine biology with \u003ci\u003eSea of Cortez\u003c\/i\u003e (1941). He devoted his services to the war, writing Bombs Away (1942) and the controversial play-novelette \u003ci\u003eThe Moon is Down\u003c\/i\u003e (1942).\u003ci\u003eCannery Row\u003c\/i\u003e (1945), \u003ci\u003eThe Wayward Bus\u003c\/i\u003e (1948), another experimental drama, \u003ci\u003eBurning Bright\u003c\/i\u003e(1950), and \u003ci\u003eThe Log from the Sea of Cortez\u003c\/i\u003e (1951) preceded publication of the monumental \u003ci\u003eEast of Eden\u003c\/i\u003e (1952), an ambitious saga of the Salinas Valley and his own family's history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The last decades of his life were spent in New York City and Sag Harbor with his third wife, with whom he traveled widely.

The reader is front and center as the spiritual war between good and evil rages and the powerful forces of hell itself are intent on destroying the faithful in both the physical and spiritual realms. Heroes of faith will emerge amidst deadly conflict as the angels of God and demons of hell battle for the eternal souls of men. The Chronicles of Trinian Trilogy focuses on love, family, and faith; and will leave the reader satisfied, edified, and strengthened in their faith. No matter what is to come, God and the spiritual forces of good are in control. The times change, the struggle continues, but the faithful will stand forever! Terrence L. Rotering attended the United States Air Force Academy from 1981 to 1985. He retired from the United States Air Force in 2005, after twenty years of service flying F111F and F-15E fighter aircraft around the world. He served for fifteen more years at the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). Author of \"The Faithful\" and \"Forever,\" Terrence adds \"Stand\" to deliver the complete Chronicles of Trinian Trilogy, described by readers online as an intriguing story masterfully woven together using a C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien and Frank Peretti style. Terrence Rotering, his wife Theresa, and their two Colorado Mountain Dogs, Scout and Ranger, live on a ranch in the mountains of Colorado. They enjoy hiking, photography, drawing, playing guitar and writing.
