So there's actually a lot of great story here, and yet there were quite a number of times it felt like it was a bit ... dragging. A bit ... fillerish. So when I've gotten to the end and I'm reflecting on it in a "fine enough" manner, I've gone back to the table of contents. And it was interesting, because reading the TOC reminded me of all the great stories in there (particularly the larger arcs) which actually accounted for almost all of it.

You never want to stop reading, the universe is truly hypnotising.

Neil Gaiman is a fantastic story teller. The weirdness and the whimsical nature of the Sandman series really forces you to think outside of the ordinary. And I absolutely love the references or hat tips to literature and history throughout!

"Mindblowing" hardly even begins to describe this. This is some of the most evocative writing I've ever read, and in so many ways too. The art and lettering is also top notch.
