The voice acting is great! The range of actors makes it seem like a real play. There are a few triggering things in the book but it's not overdone. There are a few scenes that were harder to get invested in, but more often than not they pulled me in and I wanted to hear more!

Phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal. I rarely am able to stay focused enough to listen to an audio book. The Sandman, with its sound effects and full cast (kind of a modern radio play) managed to not only retain my attention, but also for the first time in years I listened to something at an almost normal speed. I want to know anything and everything about how the mind of Mr. Gaiman works. His story was absolutely enthralling
