Neil Gainman's The Sandman and Joseph Campbell: In Search of the MOdern Myth

If you are looking for another story told by Neil Gaiman - This is NOT it - this is a very well written book by stephen Rauch about the philisopical and contexual aspects of myth. The book just happens to use the Sandman sieres as its primary backdrop for its discussion. All and all a very interesting book to which i would recommend, and one not be an avid fan or very knowledgable about The Sandman sieres to enjoy. Just make sure to consider it a book primarily about myth and philosophy as opposed to a book about the Sandman sieres.
