Endless entertainment! This volumen is a special presenting short stories featuring each member of The Endless. The general rating is an average sum of the ratings given to each story contained in this comic book. All stories are written by Neil Gaiman. A very amusing thing is that while each story is focused in a member of The Endless (the family of Morpheus, the Lord of Dream), you may be able to appreciate how each other member of The Endless causes some level of impact in some way or another, and without a doubt while The Endless are the protagonist of their short stories, you can’t deny the importance of people. Without people, The Endless are nothing, they couldn’t even exist. DEATH AND VENICE Rating: **** ( 4 stars ) Illustrator: P. Craig Russell I missed you… so badly. In this story, Death is waiting for a door to be open again and getting throught it, a very special door. A man who has been blessed with watching Death (when it’s not still his time) will be key to this. An interesting tale about various lives when they encounter a perfect day. How tempting is to live always in a perfect day? WHAT I’VE TASTED OF DESIRE Rating: ***** ( 5 stars ) Illustrator: Milo Manara Follow your heart. A woman wants to be loved by someone in the same way that she’d love that someone too. Ooooh, that’s good that she didn’t want anything hard! Geez! Desire meets that woman and he/she shows to the woman her inner nature. That helped her to define her path in life. Is it possible to have anything you want in life? DREAM THE HEART OF A STAR Rating: ***** ( 5 stars ) Illustrator: Miguelanxo Prado Just because a name is used by the young doesn’t make it foolish. Easily the best story in the bunch. Morpheus invites his girlfriend, Killalla of the Glow, to a very important parliament where the high powers will discuss and delimitate their own reaches, domains, responsibilities and obligations. All the Endless are invited, along with many other high powers, like Stars, Faerie, Dimensions. Organic life is quite at minimum in the universe. Most planets are asleep yet. Dream and Desire are still close to each other, but you will find out the reason of their distancing. Delight is still Delight, not yet Delirium. Destruction is still in his post. Despair, mmh… Despair is there too. Destiny and Death will do brief appearances. You will have a real treat meeting the stars of Rao, Sto-Oa, Sol, etc… How to refuse such priceless invitation? FIFTEEN PORTRAITS OF DESPAIR Rating: ** ( 2 stars ) Illustrator: Barron Storey (with such last name, he shouldn’t be a writer?) Original design: Dave McKean Her sigil is the hooked ring. A very bizarre graphic narrative that I guess its intention is to provoke a sense of despair. Well, what else could you expect from this Endless member? DELIRIUM GOING INSIDE Rating: ** ( 2 stars ) Illustrator: Bill Sienkiewicz She’s still inside. A very delirious tale about pain and how to deal with it. Certainly, you hadn’t expected anything coherent from her, mmh? DESTRUCTION Rating: **** ( 4 stars ) Illustrator: Glenn Fabry Hey. Have you had any experience? With ruins? I’ve certainly made my share of them. A female arqueologist is invited to investigate a strange mountain, a mountain that it wasn’t there just a year ago, and where you find impossible things while digging. Destruction already left his post, but he is still around and he finds to develop an interest on the arqueologist. How Destruction can resist a woman who makes a living on digging destroyed things? DESTINY ENDLESS NIGHTS Rating: **** ( 4 stars ) Illustrator: Frank Quitely He did not create the path you walk. A simple but effective tale explaining the role and the burden of the oldest member of The Endless. How could you resist to take a peek in a book where you could know everything that happened but also everything that will happen about you or anybody else?Rating Epithetical Books The Sandman: Endless Nights (The Sandman #Collection of stories)

I think I might've read the Death short story in another compilation somewhere, but for the most part they were interesting glimpses into the lives of the Endless. However, nothing really stood out as eye-opening and I couldn't even try to read Despair's portion, as I didn't care for the art collage style.This is wonderful collection of graphic shorts - one for each of the Endless. I particularly enjoyed the darkness of Despair's story.
This was confusing as hell. Not astonishing since I had no knowledge of Sandman with their "Not Gods" before reading this graphic novel. Most of the stories were okay hence this star rating. O.W.L.s 2020: Potions: Shrinking Solution - Book under 150 pages.
This one is more in line with the rest of the series, disjointed but interwoven with stories, odd artwork and sometimes painful text. In other words, part of the classic series.With one caveat.I loved it to death for a slightly different reason than the rest. They were individual stories of each of he Endless, both deep into their lives and bursting with history and it was all damn interesting. I didn't like Despair's nearly as much as I wanted to, but Death and the very young Dream and
Endless Nights is a gem. Beautifully illustrated and wonderfully told it is yet another example of why I think so highly of Neil Gaiman. This is a collection of short stories about the Endless. Each story covers a different member of the Endless family. Each story has its own unique art style.Follow the stories of Death, Desire, Dream, Despair, Delirium, Destruction and Destiny. I enjoyed the Death, Dream and Desire stories the most-though none of these stories is bad. The Despair and Delirium

This graphic novel was absolutely breathtaking! I really loved getting to know each of the Endless and their back story, it made me want to dive deep into their world and never come back. Gaiman has truly come up with something just beyond fascinating with this series. The story is just SO interesting and it wraps itself around you until you dont want it to let go! And then the artwork is just BEYOND stunning and brings the graphic novel to a whole other level of awesomeness!
