This was part of the Included catalogue on Audible for a limited time and I decided why not listen to it as part as of my October/Halloween read. 

Side note: for days I had the song "Mr. Sandman" stuck in my head.

The production value is really good. I liked the sound effects (it helped visualizing scenes that's originally a graphic novel) and I liked the intro song. 

I loved James McAvoy's voice. He's an excellent narrator. Though I did not picture Morpheus as the image on the cover but as James McAvoy. 

I didn't realize the beginning would have a slight MacGuffin Plot. Even so, it was entertaining. 

Some things I liked:

- Michael Sheen as Lucifer. I pictured him as Aro in the Twilight Saga.
- Episode 10: "Men of Good Fortune". 
- The Vortex / Rose Walker 

I hated:
- "24 Hours" - way too sick and disturbing. I fast forwarded that story.
- "Collectors" - I didn't see the point of this one.

If Part 2 is ever available in the Included catalogue then I'll listen to that.

3.5 our of 5 Dreams.
