Hailed by the Los Angeles Times Magazine as "the greatest epic in the history of comic books," The Sandman changed the game with its dark, literary world of fantasy and horror-creating a global, cultural phenomenon in the process. At long last, Audible and DC present the first-ever audio production of The New York Times-bestselling series written by acclaimed storyteller Neil Gaiman. When The Sandman, also known as Lord Morpheus, the immortal king of dreams, is pulled from his realm and imprisoned on Earth by a nefarious cult, he languishes for decades before finally escaping. Once free, he must retrieve the three "tools" that will restore his power and help him to rebuild his dominion, which has deteriorated in his absence. This first installment of the audio series The Sandman adapts volumes 1-3 of the graphic novel series (Preludes & Nocturnes, The Doll's House, and Dream Country).
