The Wake

by Neil Gaiman, Michael Zulli, Jon J. Muth
The Wake
The Wake

Dream's demise reshapes fantastical, mythical realms.

"The Wake" is a poetic culmination to the acclaimed Sandman series. If you've journeyed with Morpheus from the beginning, the emotional resonance of this finale will move you. Neil Gaiman weaves together a rich tapestry of myth, history, and literature, leaving a lasting impact on the reader. As you say farewell to familiar characters and witness the rebirth of the Dreaming, you'll appreciate the depth and artistry that's become synonymous with Gaiman's work.

Description

When a dream ends, there is only one thing left to do... The Wake in which the repercussions of the death of Lord Morpheus are felt, and, in an epilogue, William Shakespeare learns the price of getting what you want. This is the tenth and final volume of Neil Gaiman's Sandman, described by author Mikal Gilmore in his introduction as "nothing less than a popular culture masterpiece, and a work that is braver, smarter and more meaningful than just about anything 'high culture' has produced during the same period." Reprints issues #70-75.
