And worry not, I won't hate you for not liking the illustrations :P I actually found this book very layered, more so than Coraline, for example, and that's one of the reasons why I loved it so much. But we can't all like everything the same way. I'm glad you still found it an enjoyable read :) I’m sorry the book didn’t quite live up to your expectations.

The stories are great, but there's not always much depth to them. His comics work has much more going on; SANDMAN is one of my favourite graphic novel series of all time because of all the things happening beneath the surface. I've read the earlier books eight times now, and I notice new things with each reading. As much as I enjoy Gaiman’s novels, I agree with you about the layers.
