Sequels & Spin-Offs:
Sandman: Dust Covers Art by Dave McKean.
This book contains Dave McKean's cover art from the Sandman series.
Stardust by Neil Gaiman, Illustrated by
Charles Vess. This novel is set in the Realm of Fairie from the Sandman series. Doesn't contain any characters
or storylines from Sandman but it's a really great fantasy story.
Death: The High Cost of Living by Neil
Gaiman, Art by Chris Bachalo, Cover & Design by Dave McKean, Introduction by Tori Amos. Contains characters
from the Sandman series centering around Dream's sister Death.
Death: The Time of Your Life by Neil Gaiman,
Art by Chris Bachalo, Cover & Design by Dave McKean, Introduction by Claire Danes. A follow-up to "The
High Cost of Living" this didn't really impress me all that much. Of all the collected books I felt this was
the weakest. |
