A group of strange travelers find themselves in a tavern at the end of the world, sharing stories to wait out a storm.
The world surrounding the Sandman expands rapidly with the addition of many new supporting characters and their interesting stories. The story of the Sandman is a story about stories, and this arc is literally all about the sharing of tales. The artwork by Michael Zulli, Mike Allred, Vince Locke, Bryan Talbot, Steve Leialoha, Mark Buckingham and others is so varied and wonderful, helping Gaiman to bring to life a dozen new worlds, any one of which could spawn its own wonderful series. This collection, along with Volume 6 "Fables and Reflections", contains such varied story styles and subject matter that it gives you a real taste for just how talented Neil Gaiman is.
