I think I’m finally satisfied on my Sandman kick for a while. Can’t read the rest too fast or it’ll be over. This volume is fun. It’s a bunch of nested tales told by people stranded at the inn at the end of the world. Very fun.

A gorgeous Chaucerian round of tales.

A fun assortment of stories within a story.  Enjoyable enough read.  As I've been reading the sandman series I wish I had someone to discuss some of my more nuanced or niche opinions on representation and storytelling devices in the series.  I'm excited to find out who the Kindly Ones are.

Only Neil Gaiman would describe a giant sea snake as “a massive dick”

Least fave so far I think. Hard to get through.
