The third book of the Sandman collection is a series of four short comic book stories. In each of these otherwise unrelated stories, Morpheus serves only as a minor character. Here we meet the mother of Morpheus`s son, find out what cats dream about, and discover the true origin behind Shakespeare`s A Midsummer`s Night Dream. The latter won a World Fantasy Award for best short story, the first time a comic book was given that honor.
