Somnology!

Well, I’ve collapsed into a moist puddle. That was one heck of a story arc, there. I’m exhausted.

Which is just as well because it’s time for us to take a week off so that everybody can request The Sandman Vol. 8: World’s End from their library or pick it up from Amazon or what have you.

It’s six stories, each somewhat standalone and, thus, in the tradition of Dream Country and Fables and Reflections.

And they’re corkers. Beg, borrow, or, erm, buy a copy.

(If you absolutely positively have to talk about some major spoiler in comments, please rot13.)

It has also come up that some wish to have a place where they can yell “DIBS!” I suppose this is as good a place to yell “dibs!” as any. (One should also keep in mind that just because someone yelled “DIBS!” on your favorite book, the one that you were hoping to recap, know that you can still submit one. We’ll read and argue over that one too.) Dibs, so far, behind the cut:

Katherine wants #53, Hob’s Leviathan

Reformed Republican wants #54, The Golden Boy

Ken wants #55, Cerements

Ken wants #56, World’s End

Alan Scott wants #75, The Tempest (schedule permitting)
