The Sandman: Book of Dreams

by Neil Gaiman, Advance (Afterword)

Overview

There is a dark king who rules our dreams from a place of shadows and fantastic things. He is Morpheus, the lord of story. Older than humankind itself, he inhabits — along with Destiny, Death, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium, his Endless sisters and brothers — the realm of human consciousness. His powers are myth and nightmare — inspirations, pleasures, and punishments manifested beneath the blanketing mist of sleep.

Surrender to him now.

A stunning collection of visions, wonders, horrors, hallucinations, and revelations from Clive Barker, Barbara Hambly, Tad Williams, Gene Wolfe, Nancy A. Collins, and sixteen other incomparable dreamers — inspired by the groundbreaking, bestselling graphic novel phenomenon by Neil Gaiman.
