The Book of Mormons (and Other Recipes for Salvation)
A wickedly funny frontier satire about prophets, puddings, and paperwork.
When a well-meaning farmhand finds a shiny rock, an angel with a ledger, and a recipe for holiness that smells like baked goods, the result is divine confusion of the highest order.
Welcome to Here, a 19th-century American town where salvation is homemade, revelation requires receipts, and the local bakery doubles as a temple.
Joe Smithson, accidental prophet and part-time cook, never meant to start a religion - he only wanted to feed the hungry. But when his sermons turn into bake sales and angels start keeping score, faith itself becomes a frontier experiment in patience, decency, and perfect crust.
A Novel of Faith, Folly, and Frontier Flavor
- A Mark Twain-style comedy of small-town faith and big-hearted foolishness.
- Perfect for fans of satire and historical humor - think Good Omens meets Huckleberry Finn.
- Smart, funny, and heartfelt - poking fun at bureaucracy, belief, and the human hunger for meaning.
- Features angels, ledgers, recipes, and more miracles than Heaven budgeted for.
Praise for Anthony Bailey's Humor and Style
Feels like Mark Twain and Neil Gaiman sat down for pie and wrote scripture together.
- Frontier Fiction Review
Smart, sweet, and sly - a satire that loves its fools.
- Reader's Roost Literary Journal
