Summary
After being struck by lightning, Buck fought to get out of his coma dream and back to reality. He succeeded somewhat. The problem was that not only was his body still lying in the hospital bed, but he was also staring down at it with no one able to see or hear him. Well, that wasn’t true. This random firefighter named Tommy could see and hear him.

Summary
After saving the life of the dragon Death of the Endless, Hob Gadling is given a boon - near-eternal life, same as the Dragon bestowing the gift. He finds himself in the castle of the Endless, serving the very family of dragons (or rather, one in particular) that had gifted him his long life.
Dream of the Endless does not need a caretaker, does not need a minder, but after Hob Gadling has been his Caretaker for more than a century, he has, perhaps, grown accustomed to the human. At least he does not mind Dream's sharp tongue.
Now, all would be well if Dream could, after centuries of looking, find his Rider, his other half, the one destined for him.

Summary
“I can’t expect things to go back to how they were,” he said loudly enough to carry over the wind. “But I am listening. Or, trying to,” he added, putting down his half-finished fish and chips with a sigh, turning sidewise to see Orpheus better. “Do you fear going to school again?”
Orpheus’ eyes darted at him in surprise, confirming Dream’s suspicion.
*****
In which a broken instrument is a metaphor for a broken family.

Summary
The shop next door to The New Inn finally has a new owner, and a brand new business. The Raven’s Nest is a tattoo shop with a little something extra mixed into the ink, and the owner is like a dream made flesh. He’s mysterious, brooding and one of the best in his specialized profession, and Hob has got it bad.
