The Sandman: Dream Country

Neil Gaiman builds worlds that pull you in. He often seems to start with recognizable experiences populated by relatable characters before pulling back the curtain for the intriguing underpinnings and meanings in the story. He pulls from a seemingly endless store of legends and narratives that come from all parts of the human experience. Past and present, historical, mythical, ethnic, conceptual. There are regularly appearing characters, some of the Sandman graphic novels focus on one character in particular, but always with the crisscrossing of other story lines and familiar characters. This series of graphic novels is singular in many ways, if you are a reader that found previous forays into comics distasteful or uninteresting, I really recommend that you give this one a try.

This book is great, I love the whole series. The first two have the bubble zoom working properly and it makes them AWESOME on my small tablet. This one zooms on the wrong spots, making the bubble zoom useless. Still a great read, just harder to read on a small screen and disappointing that the bubble zoom does not work.

Some have mentioned that part of the book us taken up by script and this is true. It may seem a bit more expensive if you are only paying for the graphic novel proper, so be forewarned. That aside, I enjoyed it.
