"Michael Tolliver Lives!" Reviews
"An affirmation of growing older and wiser that gives hope to those trying to appreciate what they have while staying true to themselves, this novel is a graceful coda to the series. Recommended." Library Journal
"[G]reat fun to read. Maupin is a master at sustained and sustaining comic turns." New York Times
"Maupin's writing style is both breezy and humorous, which makes the sadder moments all the more poignant." Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Tales of the City Reviews
"An old fashioned pleasure... there's been nothing like it since the heyday of the serial novel 100 years ago... Tearing through [the tales] one after the other, as I did, allows instant gratification it also lets you appreciate how masterfully they're constructed. No matter what Maupin writes next, he can look back on the rare achievement of having built a little world and made it run." - Walter Kendrick, Village Voice Literary Supplement
"A consummate entertainer who has made a generation laugh...It is Maupin's Dickensian gift to be able to render love convincingly." - Edmund White, Times Literary Supplement
An enormously talented writer—witty but always sympathetic, generous in showing us the secrets of his heart...By writing about what's seemingly different Armistead Maupin always manages to capture what's so hilariously painfully true for all of us. - Amy Tan

"The Night Listener" Reviews
"A page-turner. . .holds our interest in a vise grip." - San Francisco Chronicle
. . . a solid page turner . . . a mystery studded with elegant twists and turns. In the end, the reader is captivated and won't be able to get on with things until The Night Listener is wolfed down whole. -New York Times Book Review - Karen Karbo

"Maybe The Moon" Reviews
"Armistead Maupin is a first rate-world-class novelist, creating characters so vivid, complicated, tender, and true as to seem utterly timeless. . . .I'm willing to bet that fifty years from now Maupin's work will be read for its detailed descriptions of late twentieth century America, its rollicking humor and kind heart, its Chekovian compassion, its Wildean wit, its intricate. . .sometimes unbelievablle but always utterly irresistible plotlines." - Stephen McCauley
One of the ten best books of the year." -Entertainment Weekly
"Highly funny and deeply poignant. . .Maupin sounds the feminine side of his psyche with a heartfelt resonance that few male writers ever accomplish." -- Judith Wynn, Boston Herald
