Sandman 7 - Krátké životy – Gaiman Neil (2020)

There were seven. Seven Eternals who ruled over seven aspects of human life. Now there are only six. One of the divine family has vanished, and his portrait in the gallery has been empty for three hundred years. No one cares, no one is trying to find him. But that is about to change. The youngest of the Eternals, the mad sister Delirium, decides to follow the trail of her long-lost brother. And the only one willing to accompany her is her melancholic and cynical brother Sandman, who sees the whole trip as merely an escape from the depression of a failed relationship. He has no idea that along the way, people will start to die. He has no idea that the journey will be more dangerous than he thought. He has no idea that he will find much more than he expected. That along the way, he will discover something that will have far-reaching consequences for him. Brief Lives is the most epic story in the entire Sandman series. It is a tale of loss, of a laborious search, of the relentless nature of change, and of the importance of memory and forgetting. It is a story about talking dogs, mystical travel agencies, and severed heads.
