More bizarre action for the residents of Barbary Lane - By: Benjamin, 13 Jul 2007 
Further tales of the City jumps forward a few years from More Tales of the City, but most of our favourite characters are still there; the residents of 28 Barbary Lane; Anna Madrigal's children. The improbable events & unlikely coincidences continue with unabated abandon, but this is part of the charm of the stories. But what holds the book together is the skilful way that Maupin involves alll the regular characters in the main plot; & main plot there certainly is (with a Jonestown connection), a plot which keeps one guessing to the end.
It's every bit as good as & possibly even funnier than its predecessors; highly recommended.
Truly Special - By: Mrs. K. A. Wheatley, 02 Apr 2001 I can't speak highly enough about this series of books. Without sacrificing character interest the plots are always interesting, unique & often quite thrilling. They should be read in order to effect maximum enjoyment, because you grow with the characters & come to love them as real people.
A more elaborate tell involving the regulars of 28 Barbary - By: , 16 Jan 2001 
This is a different pace to the usual books, but the plotline is fantastic & it interweaves actual events from the late 1970's & early 80's. The only flaw is the absence of Mona, who has relocated. But, otherwise, a fantastic read that makes you hungry for more.

Weakest link in the chain - By: , 10 May 2000 
Didn't like this one much at alll, though read it for continuity & of course the occasional flash of brilliance. How the heck did Mary Ann get to be a presenter from being a secretary? This was never explained! Please enlighten me! Hated the whole silly Jonestown stuff too. But I love the characters & wanted to see how they were doing, so read on!
