Sandman Omnibus, Volume III by Neil Gaiman and Others

This entry is part 8 of 8 in the series 2023 Reads

Like other reads, this one is being posted a little while after I’ve finished it. Somehow, this one was a very quick read for me, despite it being about 800-odd pages of comics (plus a large amount of Death pin-ups and cover art).

#dungeon23 Days 66-73: Some Little Fragments

This entry is part 5 of 6 in the series #dungeon23

I spent my #dungeon23 time this past week detailing a trio of small, connected fragments of the broken moon. I like the challenge of designing interesting locales, one or two at a time, that are weird and unique enough to be interesting, malleable enough to work as SF or as science fantasy, and that fit […]
