    • The Sandman is the most acclaimed and award-winning comics series of the 1990s for good reason. A smart and deeply brooding epic elegantly penned by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by a rotating cast of comics' most sought-after artists, it is a rich blend of modern myth and dark fantasy, in which contemporary fiction, historical drama and legend are seamlessly interwoven. The saga of The Sandman encompasses a series of tales unique in graphic literature and is a story you will never forget. The Wake is a sober, somber conclusion-literally. A dying fall-to a sequence that undeniably constitutes a major achievement. There is nothing quite like it anywhere else. The Wake is the tenth and last volume in The Sandman Library, best read after the other books in the saga. While The Sandman volumes can be read out of order.
