Endless Nights

[sawyl]

Someone once said something like, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever: it's loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness", a sentiment that could definitely be applied to Endless Nights.

The collection consists of seven stories, each of which is drawn by a different artist, and each of which is centred around different member of the Endless. As with many of the original Sandman stories, the Endless don't usually feature as the focus of the story but rather, they're illuminated by actions of the other characters.

Make no mistake, this collection comes close to perfection: as sweet as Death; as passionate as Desire; lonely as Dream; dark as Despair; as vague as Delirium; as dangerous as Destruction and as certain as Destiny.

As your attorney, I instruct you to go out and buy this book and read it as soon as you possibly can. Then I recommend re-reading it, once, twice, thrice, for, as the poet says, it truly is a joy forever.
