Things had the potential to die before they had the potential to dream. " The brilliance of this series resides in the fact that it can go anywhere and be almost anything. We all have dreams, and across the ages there has been a huge variety of hopes and wishes and visions of a better world. And to capture the vastness of dreaming this volume takes on the form of a collection of short stories, each with a different dream and a different idea. Naturally, m.. The sixth collection—as its title suggests—is a somewhat random grab-bag of tales, only tenuously connected with the Sandman story. Still, there are a couple of themes present here: 1) the fate of empires and emperors, and 2) the ways in which narrative—in dream and song—can sustain hope and foster illusion. Four of the stories feature historical rulers—Emperor Caesar Augustus, revolutionary leaders Robespierre and St. Just, Caliph Harun al-Rashid, and San Francisco native Joshua Norton (self-pro.. A priceless journey through history and folklore!
Gaiman remains top-notch in his writing, and the deviation from a direct story line may appeal to some readers, but perhaps not to all. Gaiman enriches the universe and the power of Dream, without using Dream as a main character. Some readers will enjoy this aspect - and perhaps enjoy the historical aspect of the stories - whereas others may wish to stay on track with the Dream as the main character. Regardless, Fables and Reflections is a volume that should not be missed, and is one of the better Sandman volumes so far. Excellent work by Gaiman.

Read it. 'Nuff said. Neil Gaiman enthralls again! Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 11, 2016 Verified Purchase Neil Gaiman never fails to excite the reader with his tales and fable. Basing things on fact, you can almost think the whole story is true.
They are a phenomenal acheivement in not only graphic novels but in storytelling itself. The story is complex and cerebral and the characters so well developed that Sandman is one of my favorite stories period. The novels are intensely violent and often disturbing but everything that happens serves a purpose, and nothing happens by chance or just for the sake of things happening. Something that happens in one volume may become vitally important 3 or 4 volumes later. By the end of the 10th volume everything has come full circle with an appropriate and satisfying end. With regards to Volume 6 itself, it is much like volume 3, consisting of several 4 different, unrelated short stories. While Morpheus often plays a role in these stories he is more of a minor character than the primary focus. The one exception to this is "The Song of Orpheus" which does play a central part in the overall story arc of the series. The stories included in this collection are: 1. Fear of Falling 2. Three Septembers and a January 3.
Description The critically acclaimed The Sandman: Fables and Reflections continues the fantastical epic of Morpheus, the King of Dreams, as he observes and interacts with an odd assortment of historical and fictional characters throughout time. Featuring tales of kings, explorers, spies, and werewolves, this book of myth and imagination delves into the dark dreams of Augustus Caesar, Marco Polo, Cain and Abel, Norton I, and Orpheus to illustrate the effects that these subconscious musings have had on the course of history and mankind.
