Quaternary Alluvium

About the Book

Most folks have one big lie that they let themselves believe. Adam Walker believed that all his problems would be over if he could just become a paleontologist. So when he was accepted into graduate school at Sunshine State University in Senova, Florida, he was ecstatic.

People should be careful what they wish for. Adam found himself marooned in a pink-and-green wonderland of strange professors, campus jocks, and five-leaf clovers. Fortunately, his fellow students: Frank, Tom, Jessica, Cathy, and Susan, were there to help him understand life in a theme park university. Life can be pretty stressful when you’re walking in quaternary alluvium.
