Review Quotes : "Gaiman revisits Morpheus's universe with warmth and renewed delight" -- Washington Post "Gorgeous." -- The New York Times "Expansive and atmospheric, jammed with brainy, contemplative moments and dry humor.... Gaiman's vivid, wild imagination is grounded in Williams' and Stewart's beautiful, captivating artwork.... Sandman fans will surely be elated not only by the return to the story but also by the stunning, gorgeous artwork, which outshines the original."­­­ -- Booklist "Dream is a long way from his realm, but for me reading this comic feels exactly like coming home." -- The Guardian "Gaiman's lush world is only made all-the-more incredible thanks to its visuals." --Nerdist Publisher Marketing : A New York Times bestseller! This massive hardcover collection reprints Neil Gaiman's seminal, award-winning The Sandman: Overture , plus The Sandman: Dream Hunters and his two acclaimed stories featuring Morpheus's sister Death. The Sandman is the universally lauded masterwork following Morpheus, Lord of the Dreaming--a vast, hallucinatory landscape housing all the dreams of any and everyone who's ever existed. Regardless of cultures or historical eras, all dreamers visit Morpheus' realm--be they gods, demons, muses, mythical creatures or simply humans who teach Morpheus some surprising lessons.

From the birth of a galaxy to the moment that Morpheus is captured, The Sandman: Overture features cameo appearances by fan-favorite characters such as the Corinthian, Merv Pumpkinhead and, of course, the Dream King's siblings: Death, Desire, Despair, Delirium, Destruction and Destiny.
