Seven stories - one for each of the Endless siblings - are told. Each reveals strange secrets and surprising truths - be they haunting, erotic or nightmarish...

Endless Nights will bring a smile to Sandman fans who are having serious withdrawal symptoms. This collection is illustrated by some of the greatest comic artists working today. From Glenn Fabry (my personal favourite) to Milo Manara, each story is designed to work as a stand alone story, as well as slot into the collection to make it complete.

And the beauty here is that it is not essential that you are a Sandman fan. Sure, it helps a little, but this collection works as a stand alone book. I'll even go so far as to say that you don't even need to have read any Sandman stories in the past to appreciate this collection.

How can you not appreciate the love and attention that has gone into Glen Fabry's offering, which sees archaeologists uncovering the future and learning things they really shouldn't, or Miguelanxo Prado's twisted interpretation of the events that may have unfolded at the dawn of time?

This is a must buy, not only for fans of Neil Gaiman and The Sandman, but for all serious collectors' of the comic art form.
