Description
Please note: This content is not for kids. It is for mature audiences only. Just like the original graphic novels, this audio adaptation contains explicit language and graphic violence, as well as strong sexual content and themes. Discretion is advised.
Hailed by the Los Angeles Times Magazine as “the greatest epic in the history of comic books”, The Sandman changed the game with its dark, literary world of fantasy and horror - creating a global, cultural phenomenon in the process. At long last, Audible and DC present the first-ever audio production of the New York Times best-selling series written by acclaimed storyteller Neil Gaiman (who also serves as co-executive producer). Adapted and directed by multi-award-winner (and frequent Gaiman collaborator) Dirk Maggs, and performed by an ensemble cast with James McAvoy (It, Parts One and Two, X-Men: First Class, Split) in the title role, this first installment of a multi-part original audio series will transport you to a world that re-writes the rules of audio entertainment the way that The Sandman originally re-defined the graphic novel.
When The Sandman, also known as Lord Morpheus - the immortal king of dreams, stories and the imagination - is pulled from his realm and imprisoned on Earth by a nefarious cult, he languishes for decades before finally escaping. Once free, he must retrieve the three “tools” that will restore his power and help him to rebuild his dominion, which has deteriorated in his absence. As the multi-threaded story unspools, The Sandman descends into Hell to confront Lucifer (Michael Sheen), chases rogue nightmares who have escaped his realm, and crosses paths with an array of characters from DC comic books, ancient myths, and real-world history, including: Inmates of Gotham City's Arkham Asylum, Doctor Destiny, the muse Calliope, the three Fates, William Shakespeare (Arthur Darvill), and many more.
A powerhouse supporting cast helps translate this masterwork into a sonic experience worthy of its legacy, including Riz Ahmed, Kat Dennings, Taron Egerton, Samantha Morton, Bebe Neuwirth, Andy Serkis, and more. Setting the stage for their performance is an unprecedented cinematic soundscape featuring an original musical score by British Academy Award winner James Hannigan. Fans will especially revel in a new twist for the audio adaptation: Neil Gaiman himself serves as the narrator. Follow him as he leads listeners along a winding path of myths, imagination and, often, terror. Even in your wildest dreams, you’ve never heard anything like this.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"James McAvoy leads an all-star cast in narrating this magnificent audio adaptation of Neil Gaiman's iconic graphic novel series, The Sandman.... As listeners are swept up in a saga in which cats talk and nightmares walk, McAvoy's steady characterization reminds them that it’s all in a day's work for him. While the cast members are exquisite, special mention goes to the production staff. The sound effects are immersive, and there is a wonderful cinematic score. This audio drama is compelling. Listeners won’t be able to pause once they hit play." (AudioFile magazine)

best audio from any book I've listened to, by far
the audio quality of this book puts the other 300 titles I've listened to, to shame. music, voice acting, sound effects.. everything is a masterpiece. closer to a movie then an audio book.

Sandman Audio Drama
you don't need to have read the comics to enjoy this story. For those who know the comics this covers the first volume. The story is mostly matching to the comics however I find that the audio performances changes how the story is understood. Certain things made more emotional sense with audio.
This isn't an audiobook in the sense it's a novel being read out loud instead it's more like an audio drama. like listening to a tv show without the visuals which are narrated for clarity. Honestly I'm looking forward to more audio dramas for the rest of the Sandman story.
The voice acting was decent except Desire, Desire didn't sound at all like I would have expected.

Completely different experience
This is not an audio book, it is an audio play multiple voice actors, music and Sound effects. All of this makes the book into a great listen. The only problem is that now I am looking for another story with all of the extras and I don’t know if any others will compare.

Phenomenal!
This adaptation is phenomenally well done. Certainly worth the purchase even if you have read the master work before. It comes to life in a new way on audiobook.

Very different for an audio book but entertaining!
Great concept for an audiobook - at first I was hesitant to keep listening as there aren't a whole lot of descriptions of the characters or environments for my mind to "paint" a full image of what I was listening to. However the different voice actors for the characters and the time lines and worlds eventually lit in my mind and I was able to fully enjoy it.
Worth a listen , I recommend 😊

I wondered how the production team would translate graphic novel to audiobook. It was brilliant. I couldn't stop listening.
