Staff Reviews
By turns strange, beautiful, and horrifying Sandman is a brilliant series. Following the recently imprisoned Lord of Dreams across time, space, and worlds, Neil Gaiman has created a rich story. With many different artists during its eight year run, the series covers a wide range of wonderful aesthetics. And with influences as varied as world mythologies, Wiliam Shakespeare, and '80s musicians, Sandman is truly something special.

Description
An entrancing collection of stories based on the World Fantasy Award-winning Sandman comic book series by Neil Gaiman—the basis for the highly anticipated Netflix series and hailed by the Los Angeles Times Magazine as “the greatest epic in the history of comic books”—including contributions from Tori Amos, Clive Barker, Susanna Clarke, Tad Williams, and Gene Wolfe, among other celebrated names in fantasy and horror
There is a dark king who rules our dreams from a place of shadows and fantastic things. He is Morpheus, the lord of story. Older than humankind itself, he inhabits -- along with Destiny, Death, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium, his Endless sisters and brothers -- the realm of human consciousness. His powers are myth and nightmare -- inspirations, pleasures, and punishments manifested beneath the blanketing mist of sleep.
Surrender to him now.
Sandman: The Book of Dreams is a stunning collection of visions, wonders, horrors, hallucinations, and revelations from twenty-one incomparable dreamers – inspired by the groundbreaking, bestselling graphic novel phenomenon by Neil Gaiman.
