In Brief Lives, Delirium, youngest of the extended family known as the Endless, prevails upon her brother Dream to help find their missing sibling, Destruction. Their subsequent odyssey through the waking world, and their final confrontation with Destruction--as well as the resolution of Dream's painful relationship with his son, Orpheus--will change the Endless forever.

The greatest epic in the history of comic books. -Los Angeles Times Magazine Intricately layered stories that combine folk tales, myths, religion, modern-day street stories and an ironic sense of humor. -USA Today A story about story, a myth about myth, a postmodern metafiction with word balloons. -The Independent
