Now it's getting good. This volume was much shorter than I expected. I liked how it was less focused on the sandman. His brooding got old quickly. Instead it features Calliope (the muse that inspired Homer), the inspiration and creation of A Midsummer Night's Dream and then ends with a reference to Ra (the egyptian sun god). The issue with Calliope was a bit dark for my taste. Overall, the volume was well done.

Also liked the Sandman's new look. Looks less like Neil Gaiman now. Easier to focus on the story instead of the author.
