I removed the tail recursion for you:

private book IsEven(int number) {
    if(number > 1) return IsEven(number - 2) == true;
    if(number == 0) return true; 
    if(number == 2) return false;
}

What'd be the result for IsEven(1)?

I didn't get this.

Why return book? Does that have some Blizzard reference?
And why would number == 2 ⇒ return false? This is a function for getting true when the number is even, right?
