Storytelling that caresses the synapses... Top-flight work from Doss, who can outplot most anybody and give cold-blooded miscreants a case of the giggles. Are you listening, awards committees?" --<i>Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on A Dead Man's Tale</i></p><p>"<i>Snake Dreams </i>is the thirteenth novel in this series, and since it's a very good one--funny, smart, and totally different--it's a great place for readers to discover Moon." --<i>The Globe and Mail (Toronto) on Snake Dreams</i></p><p>"James D. Doss's novels about Charlie Moon... feel as if the author is sitting around a campfire, spinning a tall tale that engulfs a circle of listeners.... Doss's tale is evocative of the area and of Indian lore, and his chatty, down-home style shines." --<i>Florida Sun-Sentinel on Three Sisters</i></p><p>"Doss's trademark humor keeps Charlie and Scott wisecracking as the plot spins smartly along to an unpredictable ending.... The most recent Charlie Moon mysteries still charm us with Western voices and ways." --<i>Rocky Mountain News on Three Sisters</i></p><p>"Doss does for the Utes what Tony Hillerman has done for the Navajo." --<i>The Denver Post</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>JAMES D.
