Forever Odd

London: Harper Collins, 2005. First printing. Hardback. Very Good/very good +. Very good example in very good unclipped DJ. Spine slightly cocked. No inscriptions. In the battle to come, there can be no innocent bystanders... In the small desert town of Pico Mundo, a childhood friend of Odd’s has disappeared. It’s feared he is dead. But as Odd applies his unique talents to the task of finding the missing person, he discovers something worse than a dead body. Odd Thomas never asked to communicate with the dead - the dead sought him out. As the unofficial goodwill ambassador between our world and theirs, he has a duty to do the right thing. That’s the way Odd sees it, and that’s why he has already won over hearts on both sides of the great divide. For Odd lives always between two worlds in the small town which he can never leave, and where the heroic and the harrowing are everyday occurrences. Now new allies and new enemies gather around Odd, some living and some not. But the adversary he encounters is unspeakably cunning. Every sacrifice is needed to tip the balance between despair and hope as a life-changing revelation rushes towards us. Odd Thomas once more stands between us and our worst fears.
