The basement of Central Square's Pandemonium Books was packed this past weekend when Amber Benson stopped by for a book signing. You may remember the 32-year-old Benson as Tara on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” These days, the actress writes comic tales and fantasy books. Her latest release is a paperback called “Death’s Daughter.”

Benson told us she’s still in touch with the Buffy crew, including hometown gal Eliza Dushku. Turns out, the friends met long before “Buffy” when they were both in “Bye Bye Love,” the 1995 divorce movie starring Paul Reiser and directed by Newton’s own Sam Weisman. “She’s super smart,” Benson said, of Dushku. “And she’s generous. She doesn’t just give money, she gives time.”

Two of the “Buffy” fans on the long line for a Benson autograph were Rebecca and Mary Moore, 18-year-old twins from Pepperell. “I related to her a lot,” Rebecca said, of Benson’s character on “Buffy.” “She was very relatable for people who don’t fit in.”
