Season of Mists is one single plotline throughout the volume without any real digressions. Enchanting as those tales can be, this is a really interesting volume. It picks up the tale of Nada, partially, which is again a thread from a previous volume woven into the main story. The part where Dream visits Hippolyta and tells her the baby is called Daniel is interesting, too, I can't wait to see where that's going.
The most interesting thing about this volume, for me, was meeting six of the seven Endless. I'm curious about the missing one. Delirium is a really interesting character. My fondest feelings are still for Death, though. Dream is sometimes quite difficult to sympathise with, given what he does to Nada -- it's good to see him making some reparations for that.
The other interesting thing was the stuff about the two angels becoming the rulers of Hell. It says really interesting things about people needing to be punished, and how things can be twisted.
