# Death: The Deluxe Edition (2022 Edition) - Hardcover

by **Neil Gaiman** (Author), **Chris Bachalo** (Illustrator)

**With _The Sandman_ heading to Netflix, this deluxe edition hardcover collects Neil Gaiman's solo stories of the series' most beloved character, Death!**

From the pages of Newbery Medal-winner Neil Gaiman's _The Sandman_ comes fan-favorite character Death in a collection of her solo adventures!

The first story introduces the young, pale, perky, and genuinely likable Death. One day in every century, Death walks the earth to better understand those to whom she will be the final visitor. Today is that day. As a young mortal girl named Didi, Death befriends a teenager and helps a 250-year-old homeless woman find her missing heart. What follows is a sincere musing on love, life, and (of course) death.

In the second story, a rising star in the music world wrestles with revealing her true sexual orientation, just as her lover is lured into the realm of Death, where Death herself should make an appearance. A practical, honest, and intelligent story that illuminates "the miracle of death."

Plus, Death's first appearance from _The Sandman_ series, her tale from _The Sandman: Endless Nights_, and much more!

With _The Sandman_ television adaptation debuting on Netflix, and the audio drama unfolding on Audible, explore the comic book classics that started it all! Collects _Death: The High Cost of Living_ #1-3, _Death: The Time of Your Life_ #1-3, the "Death Talks about Life" AIDS pamphlet, stories from _Vertigo: Winter's Edge_ #2 and _The Sandman: Endless Nights_, the short story "The Wheel" from the 9-11 tribute book, and _The Sandman_ #8 and #20.
