Overview: John Noble has been coming up with stories since high school and writes both Scifi and Biblical Historical Fiction… because those two genres obviously go together. His books include The Days of Elijah, the Days of Joseph, Medea and Starbound. Since writing books doesn’t pay many bills, he also works a day job as a real life rocket scientist in Texas.
He’s always excited to hear from readers, and when he’s not at work you can usually find him writing, trapped on a treadmill at the gym, hanging out with his little sisters, or blowing entirely too much money at Chipotle.

The Days of Joseph (#1)
Joseph’s family just started a war they’re going to lose.
Two days ago, his half-sister Dinah was kidnapped and raped by the prince of Shechem. Now Joseph is trapped between his brothers, clamoring for an attack on the fortress city, and his father, who knows they can’t win.
Personally, Joseph would rather not die for a lost cause, however, he may not have much choice.
When two of his brothers launch a vicious raid on the city to rescue Dinah, Joseph’s world is plunged into chaos. And as news of the treacherous attack spreads, his family find themselves hemmed in by enemies on every side. In desperation they flee south, to Bethel, risking the dangerous journey to reach a place where Joseph’s father believes God Himself will come to their aid.
Except, there’s a reason they haven’t been to Bethel before. Jacob has his own secrets, a promise made to God before Joseph was even born that could come due at a terrible price.
But they may not have a choice, because, as the smoke from the ruins of Shechem drifts skywards, God Himself is looking down on them.
Watching and waiting.
And He won’t wait forever.
This is an adaptation of the story of Genesis 34 from the Bible.
The Lost Brother (#2)
Joseph has been having dreams.
In the two years since Joseph’s family sacked Shechem and fled south, his relationship with his brothers has collapsed to new lows. Now Joseph is having dreams of a future where he lords over his older brothers.
Needless to say that hasn’t improved his popularity.
But it may not matter, because Joseph’s dreams seem to be coming true. Father’s blatant favoritism may have poisoned Joseph’s brothers against him, but it has its perks as well. Already Jacob is trusting him with more and more responsibilities, and with the weight of age beginning to press on Father, it seems inevitable that Joseph will soon step in as his steward and heir.
But that favored status comes with expectations. Most worryingly, expectations of who he will marry. Jacob already has several eligible young ladies in mind, respectable maidens from excellent families who would no doubt make a good political match… none of whom Joseph even knows, let alone loves.
And that’s a problem, because Joseph’s heart already belongs to someone else. A kind, gentle girl who might be just perfect… except that she doesn’t come with the prestigious pedigree that would make her a good match, at least not in Father’s eyes.
And while Joseph flounders in a world where everyone seems to have a say in his life, except for him, his brothers are circling like jealous wolves.
Watching and waiting.
Because it only takes one wrong step to fall.
This is an adaptation of the story of Genesis 37 from the Bible.
