The Divide
by Elizabeth Kay
Felix is a special sort of hero. Though brave and resourceful, he has a heart condition that threatens his life. This summer, Felix is spending his vacation in Costa Rica. At a spot called the Divide — where the waters that run down to the Pacific and Atlantic oceans separate — Felix tumbles into a magical backwards world where mythical creatures are real and human beings are only a legend. It is there that Felix will encounter fantastical new friends who may help him find a cure for his illness. It's sure to be a journey beyond Felix's wildest dreams!

Excerpt:
"Well, peck me where it hurts!" said the voice. "What in the world are you?"

Felix stared. I'm dreaming, he thought. That's it, I'm dreaming.

"You're not a tangle-child," said the creature. "Your ears are the wrong shape."

This is an amazing book. I love it. I thought it was a really great book. I can't wait until I see a third installment for the series.

The Divide is one of the best books I have ever read. Elizabeth Kay puts in all of the details so that you can have a picture in your head and just follow along with the book. If you have not read this book, I highly recommend that you read it.

This is a good book and I really liked it though I think it has the same sort of concept as 'Artimis Fowl' and I think that it is not as well done as it. Although this book is probably aimed at a younger audience. It is a great book and a great read no matter what it is compared to!!!

This is a great book! I must confess, I was drawn in from the start.
Unlike some books that just like to rip off well-known and well-loved series, this one has its own unique fantasy that is truly enchanting and interesting. I am hoping that this isn't the only book in this series or by Elizabeth Kay, because this is a talented piece that most fantasy loving kids and teens will be sure to enjoy.

If you don't like this book you're crazy! There are dragons, elves, griffins and more! Snakeweed always has some evil tricks up his sleeve, but can Felix, Betony, Ironclaw and Thornbeak stop him?

I thought it was an excellent book. I recommend it to every one of any age that has an imagination.

Epic, adventurous and complete with a surprise ending! M.T. Anderson has a way with words and a way to capture your interests - relating you to the characters.

This book is awesome! It has a good blend of Mythical Imagination and Reality. If you like Mysticism, this is definitely your book.
Aerith L. Age 14

The Divide is a great fantasy book. It includes many mythical creatures. I would recommend it to ages 8-16. It is an action packed story about a boy who some how falls into a different world when he stands across the Continental Divide.
Ryan E. Age 12

I really liked this book. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves reading adventures and magical things.
