This was part of Mah Sweetie's 13th Mensaversary gift to me. It's fun to remember the series through the quotations, and I enjoyed seeing the art in this different context. It's a small, hard-back meander through a graphic novel series I'm right fond of. I wouldn't have bought it for myself, but I'm very glad Mah Sweetie did.
The Quotable Sandman: Memorable Lines from the Acclaimed Series contains some of the very best pieces of wisdom from Neil Gaiman's legendary comic book series. The illustrations - from artists like Dave McKean, Kent Williams, Mike Drigenberg, Malcolm Jones III, Jill Thompson, and others - capture the spirit of the quotes they are juxtaposed against. This will delight fans of the series and could serve as a way to introduce new readers to why they should read The Sandman, though it does have a couple spoilers.
