The author says, "My first book, A View from the Moon, was my legacy until I realized my legacy would continue and I had so many new works to publish. So, I penned my second view from the moon. Everything is new and I hope refreshing. Fiction, fantasy, facts sprinkled with real life truths and travel. I feel confident that you will be able to figure it out for your enjoyment. When I was just a pup and working for an well known New Mexico architect in Santa Fe, New Mexico, he took a liking to me and spent personal time teaching me renderings. In those days it was pencil, colored pencil or watercolor. He gave me this advice:

'Someone has to start you and someone has to stop you.' That someone, I realized, was me. It has guided me though life in the creative process."

Multi-gifted artist, architect, and writer Ted C. Luna was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He learned fine carpentry, remodeling and building additions from his father and took an interest in drafting from an early age. Luna graduated with a Fine Arts Degree in 1965 from the University of New Mexico and a degree in Architecture in 1966. Later he worked with Antoine Predock for four years, and practiced in Santa Fe. He established several firms and for a three year period, he partnered with Alfred Ross. In the late 1980s, he spent about six years in cities such as Phoenix and Scottsdale, Arizona and La Jolla and San Diego, California, working on large multi-story casino projects. Architectural historian Bainbridge Bunting strongly influenced Luna's interest in architectural history, and his affinity for the regional vernacular of New Mexico architecture is reflected in his professional styles. However, he often deviated from strict traditional design, maintaining a modern approach, even toward the Spanish Pueblo Revival Style of New Mexico. Ted Luna was the architect for the award winning Vietnam Veteran's National Memorial, located in Angel Fire, New Mexico.
