I didn't enjoy this volume as much as the others. The story is still good, and I liked seeing all the different religions and the like's representatives, but it was a little too... off, I suppose? from the others. I liked the different, singular plotlines that the other books have, that have a vague connection to the rest of what's going on. This volume lacked that.

I did like, however, all the Endless (bar one) coming to the family dinner. I like the other siblings, and I wish there was more involvement with them. I like Dream, don't get me wrong, but he's so melancholy and silent that it does get a little bit annoying and dreary after a while. But still, good to see the other siblings. Can't say I'm a fan of Desire.

I liked Chaos, too. She reminds me of Delirium.

This is an epic and modern day classic. We get further insight into the mystical and dark character, known as Dream, as he struggles with the knowledge that Lucifer no longer wants to reign over hell. This story is full of intrigue and studies of 'human' emotion. This really is the peak of Sandman, where many of the previous stories are tied up, and referred back to. Beautiful all round. Gaiman is a master.
