Summary: It's not bad...
Comment: ...but it's not Gaiman. But then, Neil set the bar at an extremely high standard, one which few can match, especially with regard to The Dreaming.

Summary: Let's Dream some more.....
Comment: I had finished reading the Sandman series not long ago, kinda thinking how much I would like to hear more stories of these fantastic characters, when I ran into this book.
It is made up of 3 short stories featuring Cain & Abel, Mad Hettie, and a few other Familiars from the Sandman series.
Story 1: "The Goldie Factor"- This is a story that centers around our favorite gargoyle, Goldie. Goldie gets angry at Cain for his continuous, mean behavior towards Abel. She realizes that she can't change the situation and runs away from home where her adventure in the dreaming begins... (this was my favorite of all the stories)
Story 2: "The Lost Boy"- Mad Hettie finds a young man who has been enchanted by the faerie people and helps him find his way home. Within this story is also the mystery of a key that Mad Hettie has stolen.
Story 3: "His Brother's Keeper"- Just another evening get-together at Cain's house.
It was nice to delve into stories focusing around the minor (but no less loved) characters from the Sandman series. The stories were basically good, but at times felt a little wonky (not a lot, but just a wee bit).
If you are looking for appearances of Dream or Death they do not show, but this shouldn't stop you from enjoying a good read and great art work.

Summary: A Beautiful Work of Art
Comment: I would consider myself perhaps an intermediate in the world of Neil Gaiman. BOTH books about the dreaming are beyond masterpieces. his characters are colorful, the storylines are in depth and fascinating, and the artwork is phenomenal. to gain a better understanding of the sandman comics, read both books on the dreaming: beyond the shores of night and the gates of horn and ivory. definitely worth the money.
