The Sandman: Book of Dreams
Neil Gaiman • Ed Kramer (editors)
HarperPrism (2002)
A prose anthology set in the world of Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics. Leading fantasy and horror writers — among them Gene Wolfe, Barbara Hambly, Tad Williams, Steven Brust, Susanna Clarke and Nancy A. Collins — each take the Dreaming and its inhabitants in their own direction. Stories move between a battlefield and a deathbed, a haunted cellar and a hotel full of serial killers, and feature Morpheus, his siblings the Endless, Cain and Abel, and Matthew the raven. No prior familiarity with the comics is required

מילה אישית מהקן:
The first major Sandman book written by hands other than Gaiman's. He invited writers he had worked with and befriended over the years to expand his own creation. The volume opens with a preface by Frank McConnell and a drawing by Clive Barker, and closes with an afterword by Tori Amos. The cover art is by Dave McKean, Gaiman's long-time collaborator on the comics. The Sandman series itself was adapted for Netflix in 2022
