Even and Odd

By Sarah Beth Durst
Even and Odd by Sarah Beth Durst digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A half-magic girl learns about heroism and taking action when she and her sister confront a wizard who endangers others for her own gain. 

Even and Odd are sisters who share magic. Lately, though, it seems like that’s the only thing they have in common. Odd doesn’t like magic, and Even practices it every chance she gets, dreaming of the day she’ll be ready to be a hero.

When the hidden border between the mundane world the sisters live in and the magical land they were born in shuts abruptly, the girls are trapped, unable to return home.

With the help of a unicorn named Jeremy, they discover a wizard is diverting magic from the border to bolster her own power. Families are cut off from each other on both sides of the border, and an ecological disaster is brewing. But the wizard cares nothing for the calamitous effects her appropriation of magic is having. Someone has to do something to stop her, and Even realizes she can no longer wait until she’s ready: she needs to be a hero now.

Slightly Smiling Face“I really enjoyed this book. Recently, Sarah Beth Durst has become one of my favorite authors, so I decided to read Even and Odd. It was a very enjoyable book, but I didn't particularly enjoy the ending. It had a good amount of build up, but to what? I still rated it 4.75 stars though, because the book was great. Definitely recommend.”
“This was a fun book to read. I like Sarah Berh Durst's writing style, and I thought the plot and characters were fun. The world was good too. All around a fun read. I'd say the audience is a little younger, but I enjoyed it all the way through!”
