It depicts a piece of history in a way that engages the reader and leaves them wanting more. <strong>Successful graphic novels work on many levels, and Zanjan easily hits this mark.<\/strong>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Vernon Wiley, <a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/comixgallery.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Comix Gallery<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;<\/em>Zanjan is a beautifully drawn and told story about the early days of the Bah\u00c3\u00a1&#8217;\u00c3\u00ad Faith. Small events are raised to cosmic significance. <strong>\u00c2\u00adAnyone interested in truth, justice and religious freedom will find it deeply meaningful.<\/strong> This is a story that needs to be told, especially now, as so many in Iran are struggling for their freedom.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.arvidland.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Arvid Nelson<\/a>, Author of Rex Mundi and Zero Killer<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reviews:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I will be the first to tell you that I am a nerd. I love my comics and I love being a grown up fanboy. When I heard about Zanjan, the graphic novel from Aaron Emmel and Aaron Kreader I knew I had to read it asap. I was not disappointed!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First off, I will say that this was a quick read. That is not a disparaging remark, as I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve read it at least three times! I think that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the benefit of its brevity, its re-readability! I finished my first read in one sitting&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Seeing the story through the eyes of Navid and the other early believers allows us to really put ourselves there, to witness these happenings with them. It is a violent, hard, sad, yet hopeful and redeeming story&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Humble Baha&#8217;i (Excerpt)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paperback, October 2011, Second Printing May 2016 Order from the publisher Story: Aaron Emmel Art: C.
