Re-read, changed from 3 stars to 4.

Not sure why I rated 3 stars - this was way more interesting than Volume 3!

I forgot to mention in Volume 2's review, when it was revealed that Dream condemned Nada to Hell <em>because she rejected him</em> I was pretty unhappy.  How <em>petty</em> of him, how utterly egotistical... <em>What a fucking jerk</em>, I remember thinking.

So with Volume 4 set up to deal with his pettiness, I was slightly mollified, but still grumpy.

<em>I was thrilled that Nada slapped him for his awful "apology".</em>

Damn, that Lucifer really likes to monologue, hey?
