The Sandman: The Deluxe Edition Book Three by Neil Gaiman

ldickol's review

3.0

Odd, this one was so very odd. I think I enjoyed it but it was all so bizarre that I felt I lost the plot one too many times.

This is just great Gaiman writing. You can actually see a lot of the themes he explored in American Gods beginning in this volume. I particularly enjoyed the search for The Prodigal and the ultimate reveal of Dream's brother.

In some ways I regret not reading this when it was coming out in issues but I feel like I am a better audience for it now at close to 50 than I would have been at 16.

Looking forward to finishing out the series with the next two volumes.

The two longer tales were solid, but the single issues were not as great for me…save Ramadan.
