And World's End is one-offs? Heh, I thought it was a plot spoiler.
Now that I think about it, there's a major plot spoiler at the end of the book, so don't read it out of sequence.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Aw, crap. I'm sorry.
It's okay. What's in a name?

Oh, I don't plan to. I'm reading in order.

Madame, what you said to her was "squid", not "good morning".
Speaking of order of reading, where do "Death: the high cost of living", "Death: the time of your life", and the book about Goldie the gargoyle (when Goldie leaves the brothers--can't remember the title) fit within the 10 (?) volumes of the collected Sandman?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I keep seeing new posts here and rush over, hoping it'll be DC OYL stuff.
Bah.

Hee! There's a book about Goldie?
Sorry, Tep. I've hijacked the thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
God, that made me search eBay for a Goldie plush figure and find out that bidding on one ended yesterday.
Am sad.
Will search more.

Oy, sorry, I got caught up in the Sandman posts.
There's a book about Goldie?
Yes, and it's excellent! Some of the best graphics in Sandman too.

Both of the Death books come after Sandman, don't they?

Yes, but there's nothing in them that spoils anything after "A Game of You."

a Goldie plush figure
That story made me pick up the pencils for the first time in yonks and draw a few pictures (of Goldie)--which admission makes me feel like a sappy sheep.

"Time of your life" follows "The high cost of living", but I forget if the characters' story preceeds or intercuts with the one in Sandman.
eta: ok, Mr. Broom. So, advise to read them after "The game of you".
