"Once every hundred years Death must spend a day as a human girl. Death has always been one of my favorite Sandman characters and I am happy that she scored her own book. Death meets a boy named Sexton who is contemplating suicide, he basically feels life is too boring to live. Death (as Didi) is so joyful and happy to experience life, it can't help but rub off on anyone who meets her, even if the results are not exactly what's expected."
"I'm not gonna lie -- I'm a bit disappointed with Neil Gaiman as of late. Maybe because the first exposure I had to him was in the movie "Stardust" and I thought that flick was just absolutely fantastic on so many levels -- but so far his books have yet to really impress me. I mean Coraline was a fun read, and Neverwhere definitely had its moments of great creativity and enjoyment, but this one I'd have say is just sub-par. It is by no means a bad book -- it's a totally fun and unique idea -- but just the execution of it didn't really leave me overly impressed. I've heard that his Sandman series is some of the best stuff out there and I've been looking forward to reading it for some time... but after these last few books - I'm hesitant. We shall see..."
"Definitely my favourite character in the Sandman graphic novels, Gaiman's Death has brought me to tears more than once... but I think I like her better in flashes here and there throughout Dream's stories. This volume didn't quite live up to her perky wisdom of earlier comics but is still a worthwhile read."
"way better than Sandman. awesome intro by Tori Amos.
still a little disappointed in Neil Gaiman, but this book is an example of good imagination set to print. how wonderful it is to imagine death as a merry punk chick with an ankh around her neck."
