A review by jelundberg
Fair Coin by E.C. Myers

5.0

Caveat: I'm good friends with the author, so I'm not completely impartial here. That said, this was a tremendously compelling book. It starts off as fairly innocuous wish fulfillment, a fantasy about a magic coin that grants wishes, and then at around the halfway point, shifts into high stakes science fiction concerned with quantum entanglement and many-worlds theory. Ephraim is a completely believable protagonist, and his friendships with Nathan and Jena fundamentally form the backbone of the narrative. Hella fun as well.

Anyone disappointed by InterWorld by Neil Gaiman and Michael Reaves (as I was) should definitely give Fair Coin a try.
