The Sandman volumes 8, 9, and 10 by Neil Gaiman, various artists, 712 pages
These three volumes wrap up the main story of the seminal
Sandman comics series, so I'm hesitant to go into much detail. That said, I will say that volume 8,
World's End, is my favorite of the volumes that collect
Sandman-adjacent stories, this time in an inn that is one of the odd liminal spaces where the barriers between worlds and time is thin.
The Kindly Ones (volume 9) is the longest chapter of the
Sandman story, and has some of my favorite artwork in the series (at least until the published-much-later
Overture), and
The Wake is a beautiful meditation on grief, loss, and change. It's a lovely end to the main series.
