I just finished The Sandman, volume 3 and am halfway through Brief Lives (actually - almost done!) and I'm in the process of reading The Dark Knight Returns, too. Since I'm not exactly finished with those (and you've read Dream Country before) I won't ramble about those.
The book I will ramble about is The Diamond Age. I need to reread it, again. I haven't yet this year. Did you ever read it? I left you that copy for a reason. ;) I still love the book, so much. It's got plot and the growth of characters and just the way so many things fall into place. It's awesome. It reminded me of a puzzle. Makes me wish I could write like that. Or find other books like it! Watchmen did come close, with the puzzle pieces and all, everything weaving together in an amazing way.
The other day, I found one of the Second Sons books at the library and it made me want to reread the trilogy and then more of Fallon's stuff! It is nice and easy and not complicated, even if the plots are twisted. Makes it fun!
