The production is a work of art. I love full cast productions and I hope the success of this one encourages more. This series is almost too relentless for me. The misery and abuse isn't broken up enough with hope or wonder. About 2/3 I started to feel exhausted and a bit numb to it all. The first two books had several moments that were actually difficult to listen to.
I found Death to be an extraordinary and beautiful character and would have liked more. I found Morpheus himself interesting and compelling, for a while. His otherworldlyness fades as the stories go on though. I found that disappointing. It changes the tone of the stories. After a while it just felt like a list of mundane tragedies, but that might have been because of my fatigue with the constant misery.

The first time I'm introduced to the real story of Sandman. The last time was in a DreamWorks animation movie adaptation with Easter Bunny, Santa etc.
At first it seemed a little bit old and I was kind of confused by all the voices, chronology. But 30min or an hour or so you get immerged in the story and it is fantastic. Especially the voices and the audio effects. The best Audible I've listened so far, it is perfect.
Well, if I got to put some flaws, some things were disgusting. Some environments, the description and behavior or villain characters like the one with mouths in his eyes. I don't fancy this kind of stuff but still, it is the best audio for me right now.

I love Neil Gaiman.
Not 5 stars, because it's not a novel, it's... comic books explained to people who cannot see. But every now and then, Neil Gaiman's... words, poetry, beauty comes through.
