New Review: Neil Gaiman's Sandman: The Dream Hunters

ADDED a review of Neil Gaiman's Sandman: The Dream Hunters. I am now about halfway through Borges's Ficciones, which continues to perplex me. Cook's The Black Company is just getting more and more depressing by the minute—hardly a pleasant experience, since it's just a bit too bleak for my tastes.

Today I went to the Cambridge Public Library and checked out an enormous stack of comic books and graphic novels. Sandman: The Dream Hunters is the first of the batch that I've read; also included are some more titles by Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison, Frank Miller, Neil Gaiman, and others. Perhaps the most exciting book I got is Frank Miller's sequel to Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. It's only one-third of the sequel, since the last two-thirds haven't been published yet, but it should be fun to read.

Because I haven't had much time to read novels, I'll be posting reviews of graphic novels in my spare time instead. But then, there's always the thesis monster. Rar.
