The Sandman. The Sandman. Dream Catchers

Starting her trick, the fox-woman did not know that it would turn into great love for her. But it happened – the fox-girl fell in love with a young monk living in a secluded temple in the mountains. And one... day she learned about the deal of the dark sorcerer-ommoji with demons, in which her beloved's life was at stake... And then the fox gave everything she had and set out to seek help in the World of Dreams, the realm of Morpheus, Lord of All Nightmares... This magical tale by Neil Gaiman, illustrated by one of the most famous artists in Japan, Yoshitaka Amano, combines elements of Japanese mythology and folklore with the universe of "Sandman". In 2000, the tale "Dream Catchers" was awarded the Bram Stoker Award and also nominated for the Hugo Award and the Locus Magazine Award. "Extraordinarily captivating, a smart fairy tale full of endless charm. Readers following Gaiman's work on 'Sandman' may be surprised by the turn he takes in 'Dream Catchers'. They will be thrilled." – CNN.com "Gaiman's luminous prose is mirrored and dramatically highlighted by the illustrations of Yoshitaka Amano. There is no more beautiful approach to the art of the book." – Edward Bryant, LOCUS "I will say that this is one of Gaiman's most exquisite and unforgettable works to date." – Charles De Lint "This book is made for sensual reading, its narrative is filled with timelessness and magic, gently enveloping this adult fairy tale. The only disappointment is that it is so short." – Patrick Kelly
