[edit] Biography

Robbins was born in Pennsylvania and spent much of his childhood living on a farm. At 17 he enlisted in the United States Air Force and rose to the rank of sergeant. Honorably discharged, Robbins went into broadcasting and was an announcer, program director and engineer at various radio stations. Later he entered law enforcement and then took to writing full-time. He is perhaps best known for two current long-running series. WILDERNESS is the generational saga of a mountain man and his Shoshone wife. Started in 1990 and written under his David Thompson pen name, the series has over 60 books and is being published four times a year. ENDWORLD is a Scifi series under his own name. Launched in 1986, there are 41 volumes so far. His novels include MEN OF HONOR and PROOF OF LIFE, THE WERELING, THE WRATH, and THE RETURN OF THE VIRGINIAN. Among his non-fiction work is HEAVY TRAFFIC, a history of the DEA.
