As with many stories from the Sandman universe, I'm not sure i understood everything, but I thought it was beautiful.

This was long, and I really, really hated the Judge Gallows character/story, which almost made me quit halfway through. I'm really on the fence about whether or not I want to continue. I am intrigued by the conclusion of this volume, and I enjoy these characters.
