World of Wonders (Deptford Trilogy)

World of Wonders (Deptford Trilogy)

Hailed by the Washington Post Book World as "a modern classic," Robertson Daviesâ€™s acclaimed Deptford Trilogy is a glittering, fantastical, cunningly contrived series of novels, around which a mysterious death is woven. World of Wondersâ€”the third book in the series after The Manticoreâ€”follows the story of Magnus Eisengrimâ€”the most illustrious magician of his ageâ€”who is spirited away from his home by a member of a traveling sideshow, the Wanless World of Wonders. After honing his skills and becoming better known, Magnus unfurls his lifeâ€™s courageous and adventurous tale in this third and final volume of a spectacular, soaring work.
