"Lepp is a side-splittingly funny man" -The Smithsonian Center for Folk Life

"Lepp is a well known liar...[his stories] make you laugh" -U.S. News- Jill Jordan Sieder

"With Lepp, the sorry, low-down lie becomes a grand and glorious creation, a verbal sculpture in which a hundred small fibs, stretchers, falsehoods and prevarications are piled together, shaped and molded into one stunning, awe-inspiring cathedral of flapdoodle and bull."  -Duke Divinity Magazine- Bob Wells

"Bil Lepp, a preacher and five-time winner of "biggest liar" competitions, stars his gun-shy hunting dog Buck in a tale that grows taller and taller -- and then even taller. Listeners are howling with the hilarity, tears of laughter streaking faces split with wide-mouth grins. When the young teller wraps up his story in one more burst of implausibility, the audience leaps to its feet, cheering. All hail the king!" -The Dallas Morning News- Mary Ellen Botter   

"Every one of Bil's stories contains multiple elements of the fantastic."  
- Graham Shelby, KUT Radio, Austin, Texas  

"Bil Lepp, a young teller from Half Dollar [sic], W.Va., had the stage presence of a stand-up comedian. He told a hilarious forty-minute monologue about growing up and getting into trouble with his best friend. Lepp's stories begin appearing biographical, but continue becoming more outrageous until they're hysterically unbelievable."    -The Post, Athens, OH- Sean Rogers

"The audience could barely stop laughing long enough to catch the next twist in the tale..."
-Journal Sentinel, WI- Andrew Milman

"...Lepp's tales will tickle the funny bone..." "...the humor is sophisticated..." "...the laugh out-loud stories are lively..." -School Library Journal

"Bil is a clever, versatile, magnificent, and charming writer." -Storytelling World Magazine-
