| 1. The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes | 
| By: Neil Gaiman Publisher: Vertigo December 07, 1993
Gaiman's Sandman series is widely considered one of the finest achievements in the graphic novel medium, but does it live up to all the hype? In this opening volume, a mortal who intends to capture Death accidentally snags her sibling Dream instead and winds up keeping him prisoner for decades. Finally escaping, Dream sets about reclaiming his lost talismans so he can rebuild his kingdom, which has... more

| | 3. The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House | 
| By: Neil Gaiman, Malcolm Jones III, Mike Dringenberg, Michael Zulli, Clive Barker Publisher: Vertigo September 01, 1991
Having established the basis for his world in The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes, Gaiman starts to stretch his wings a little, introducing us to more inhabitants of Morpheus's strange world, including some of his siblings, his servants (of a sort), and waking nightmares like The Corinthian. Gaiman ties it all together in a fascinating arc involving a young girl descended from a minor character... more

| | 4. The Sandman Vol. 3: Dream Country | 
| By: Neil Gaiman, Malcolm Jones III, Charles Vess, Steve Erickson Publisher: Vertigo September 24, 1991
Taking a break after the sweeping grandeur of The Sandman Vol. 2: The Doll's House, Gaiman creates what is essentially a short story collection, allowing him to play with different ideas and themes within the boundaries of his intricate mythology. As with any short story collection, some of the four stand out more than others, but it's rare to find a collection where none of the pieces truly misfire... more

| | 6. The Sandman Vol. 5: A Game of You | 
| By: Neil Gaiman, Bryan Talbot, George Pratt, Stan Woch Publisher: Vertigo September 03, 1993
Honestly, at this point, anything that Neil Gaiman writes would impress me. Even so, I don't feel this is his greatest work. The writing and story are there, but they just aren't as compelling as earlier volumes. Every fan of the Sandman will inevitably read this volume, and I hope others find it less disappointing... more

| | 7. The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections | 
| By: Neil Gaiman Publisher: Vertigo January 04, 1994
Another collection of short stories in The Sandman universe, and while the results aren't as consistently strong as those in The Sandman Vol. 3: Dream Country, the high points are incredibly high. The two best stories bookend the novel. After a short introductory piece, "Three Septembers and a January" opens the novel, detailing the life of the only Emperor of America, with Gaiman crafting what could... more

| | 9. The Absolute Sandman, Vol. 4 | 
| By: Neil Gaiman Publisher: Vertigo November 11, 2008
I give the story 5 out of 5 stars, however, the quality of the books themselves is wanting: All four volumes came to me inside their sleeves and shrink wrapped, yet there was slight scuffs to the covers! Also, volume four had one page folded over and miscut. For books that cost $99 each, there should have been more attention to detail/quality control. One last thing, although the story is one... more

| | 10. The Sandman Vol. 8: Worlds' End | 
| By: Neil Gaiman, Neil Gaiman, Stephen King Publisher: Vertigo July 01, 1995
In which Gaiman takes a breath before entering the inevitable final act of The Sandman. At first glance, World's End is another series of short stories, a la The Sandman Vol. 3: Dream Country and The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections, albeit one with a stronger framework to it that reminded this English major of Canterbury Tales. But there's more going on here than meets the eye, and the final... more
