Book Review of The Deptford Trilogy

The Deptford Trilogy

The Deptford Trilogy does a wonderful job of interconnecting the lives of its three main characters. They were all born in the town of Deptford in Canada, and while each book focuses directly on the life of just one character, both Fifth Business and World of Wonders (books 1 and 3 of the trilogy) share the same narrator.

I found Fifth Business very interesting, but my favorite book of the series was The Manticore. It was fun to read one novel right after the other. I think I got the most out of the books, reading them when all the details from the previous books were still fresh in my mind.
