Artists of Utah's 15 Bytes There have already been a handful of breakout or crossover Mormon novels over the years.  I think this is the most imaginative to date, perhaps corroborated by the Association for Mormon Letters which awarded it Best Novel for 2011.

Provo Orem Word p.46 "'The Scholar of Moab' is one of these great books"

Deseret News "Magical realism refreshes Western fiction . . . "

By Common Consent "The Scholar of Moab is the most engaging novel I’ve read since Levi Peterson’s The Backslider"

Shelah Books It "Best book by an LDS Author in 2011"

Pale Horse Blog "This easy touch does not obscure its heavy philosophical matter: the nature of consciousness and belief, the relationship between faith and science, the tension between persona and reality, the weight of secrets, the uncomfortable relation between various kinds of love."

Scott Abbot "It’s satire of the best sort . . . "

Midwest Book Review "a choice addition to any general fiction collection."

Times & Seasons "Philosopher Adam Miller in 'Irreducibility'" 

Times & Seasons "Philosopher Adam Miller in 'Believing Bees'" 

Ronan Head gives an account of "an account of books and friends, red rock and lichen-clad graves, science and serendipity.
