The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House by Neil Gaiman

---

I've read almost all of Neil Gaiman's novels and short stories, but never delved into Sandman because it almost seemed overwhelming. Got this one and Season of Mists ages ago on sale from my local comic shop and kept thinking I'd get to them in order. Finally decided to just dive in and go back later if I liked them. And I will be going back. The intro by Clive Barker should give some idea as to the horror level of this particular arc, and it was creepy enough to give me some weird and unsettling dreams. Or maybe it was just a manifestation of Dream himself....
