The Sandman Act I was my first audiobook and I really enjoyed it. I loved that it was a full cast as this helped me feel engrossed in the story. I loved Neil Gaiman’s narration as well, he has a great voice for it! There were a few storylines but the main was revolved around Morpheus getting his items of power back after they were taken from him when he was imprisoned. I loved the mix of stories and most of the characters. Some of it was a bit gory for 7am as I listened whilst driving to work but overall I loved this.
