The Sandman Audio Adaptation Tops the New York Times’ Best Sellers List

Written by marcie on August 07 2020

Audible’s audio drama adaptation of The Sandman is already off to a strong start, widely acclaimed by critics and officially hit with listeners as it tops the New York Times Best Sellers list less than a month since its debut.

The Sandman adaptation has gained the top spot in the New York Times “Audio Fiction” Best Sellers category, an especially impressive feat for Audible’s adaptation of the universally acclaimed Vertigo Comics series by Neil Gaiman.

The audio drama faithfully adapts the first twenty issues of the comic book series, which was originally published from 1989 to 1996, featuring a whole host of superstar comic book artists, including co-creators Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg. A CD release, for those without an Audible account, is expected later this year.
