"Zarahemla Books is, in my opinion, the most valuable brand in Mormon letters today. I can't think of another publisher (of any type) whose books I'm as likely to pick up just because of who published them. . . . Zarahemla keeps proving my faith in them well placed. They're the Pixar of Mo lit!"

—Theric Jepson, A Motley Vision
