neil-gaiman: The all-ten-volumes-in-one-slipcase-edition of SANDMAN comes out in November! I’m thrilled. You have no idea how long I’ve been asking DC to do one of these. (Er, about 16 years.) (Edit to add: lots of questions coming in. I believe it’ll be about $199, so the books are cover price but the slipcase is free. Probably cheaper if you buy it at places that discount books. These are the recoloured editions that use the Absolute edition recolouring of the first few books. And last time DC did something like this they also sold the slipcase separately.)

twoworldsofdesign: My two all time favorite books by my all time favorite writer.
adeia: This is my book. It might also be your book. It could even be our book. However, I can only say with certainty that it is my book. While I obviously did not write this book, it is still mine in all the other ways a book can belong to a person. This is my favorite book. I first read American Gods when I was fifteen. I was, appropriately enough, going on vacation with my family in our motor home. As we drove across the country, I read. It was hot outside and icy in my book. I read. I escaped. We went south and the book took me north. I fell in love. It was a story that spoke to me in a way stories had never spoken to me. Sure, I was already a lover of books. Sure, I had been reading voraciously for years. But something about this book changed everything. It changed the way I thought about books. It changed the way I thought about America. It changed the way I thought about people. It changed the way I thought about gods. I finished the book. I read it again. I kept finding things. Things I hadn’t noticed on the first read, or the second. I graduated from high school and went to college. I reread the book. Suddenly its layers opened up to me. My knowledge and its knowledge were like two mirrors facing each other, our depths reflecting infinitly. As I grew as a person, as a scholar, the book grew with me. I will never tire of reading this book. Now I am twenty-four and the book is ten. Neil Gaiman, to whom this book belongs even more than it belongs to me, and his publishers have released this 10th anniversary edition. It’s 12,000 words longer. I am scared and excited. I cannot wait to plumb its depths and find something new. I cannot wait to meet the gods again. I’ve read it only twice, but I’m sure anyone who read the book multiple time will find something similar as you did.
I really want to read my hardbound Sandman till i fall asleep but its too heavy, i fear that if it falls on my face i might die! haha submitted by succubuspsyche
