![]() A story unnecesarily long, lacking excitement at the climax, beginning under a weak reason. Here, you can find it out, if you read carefully and certainly is surprising/awesome/powerful (pick your poison). However, in this ninth volume, if you can read between lines, some mysteries are revealed, specially one connected to the identity of someone who was close to the heart of Morpheus but you never got the chance of watching them together in The Dreaming and other characters when commented about the romance, they never say the name of the mysterious lady. Even, the trigger element for the following happening is odd and kinda clumsy, once the story unfolds. Since it’s the longest (so far) volume in the series, and certainly it was superbly written, but in my humble personal opinion, it’s too long once you get to the point of the story. The Kindly Ones was a tricky book to rate. In any case, it was good to buy this TPB at the same price that the other previous ones. ![]() Maybe it was a request by Neil Gaiman, the author, or not. ![]() ![]() I mention this, since this ninth volume is easily twice the long, so it could be normal to be priced in a higher price. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves.īefore of anything, I want to comment that it was very nice to find that The Kindly Ones TPB price remained in $19.99, the same as other previous TPBs. Illustrators: Marc Hempel, Richard Case, D’Israeli, Glyn Dillon, Teddy Kristiansen, Charles Vess, Dean Ormston & Kevin Nowlan Superbly written but too long for what the story is about ![]()
