Don holds a bachelor's degree in mass communication from Taylor University. Don Hoesel, the acclaimed author of Elisha's Bones, Hunter's Moon, and The Alarmists, lives in Spring Hill, Tennessee, with his wife and two children. When not writing novels, he spends his days working in the communications department of a large company.
Hoesel added a bit of "Indiana Jones" flair to Serpent of Moses Katie Garvin Serpent of Moses was my first read by Don Hoesel, though I own two of his previous books. And after such a good experience I will definitely be reading them in the near future! As I saw another reviewer compare, this book does put you in mind of an Indian Jones movie. What's not to like, right?!!Jack Hawthorne was a one-of-a-kind type of guy! While it was easy for me to grow to like him, I couldn't help but laugh at a few of his antics--such as the ability to sit back, relax (or even sleep) no matter the situation. Esperanza, Romero, and Duckey made awesome "sidekicks" for him and, really, with a guy like Jack, he needs them!The people hun. Brandon said Keeps getting better!. I just finished reading Elisha's bones and absolutely loved it! I could not wait to start the sequel and The Serpent of Moses is another great adventure! These books are a must read for fans of biblical fiction and relic hunting adventures!. G. Robinson said Clean, simple, action. Dan Hoesel proves action/adventure books can be fun and have romance without having to skip pages to avoid needless intimate details. It's great to have a book I can enjoy along with my older children and not be embarrassed by some scenes. There is plenty of action and thrills to keep you interested, with just enough romance for readers who enjoy that element in a novel.
Jack Hawthorne has given up teaching and resumed the practice of archaeology, although his frequent absences have put a strain on his relationship with Esperanza. Things heat up when Esperanza receives a call from an antiquities dealer with troubling news about Jack, and her fears are confirmed. Later, in attempting to steal it, he finds himself in the hands of a man who just might be his match. A Fast-Paced Follow-up to the BestsellingSuspense Elisha's Bones!Just three years after the recovery of Elisha's bones, Dr. Jack has gone to Libya in search of another biblical artifact: the Nehushtan, the serpent staff of Moses.After Jack arrives in Libya, he soon discovers he isn't the only one searching for the Nehushtan.
