jonny posted this on the old board, i thought id put it back on as a reminder

as its out soon.. 3/07/06

synopsis.

All her life, Faith has been a loner. Growing up in a broken home in south Boston, the only friend she could talk to was an imaginary companion called Alex, who helped her to escape to a fantasy world of monsters, far from the grim reality of her everyday life. But when social services take her away from her mother, Faith discovers all too soon that monsters themselves are real. When Diana Dormer, a representative from the Watchers' Council, comes to prepare her for her destiny - to be the Slayer, the Chosen One; to stand alone against the forces of darkness - Faith is better equipped than most for the task ahead. Then her childhood companion, Alex, returns to bring her a warning in her dreams. Something is coming for her, something beyond her wildest nightmares: a force so deadly and unforgiving that it has inspired fear for a thousand generations - and its name is Malice. As memory and fantasy begin to merge, Faith's two world's collide, with cataclysmic results - and a violent battle begins for the Slayer's soul.

I saw this listed in Forbidden Planet catalogue the other day. Think I might give it a go. A new Faith fix sounds quite good lol. Thanks for the reminder btw.

**eliza'snumber1fan** · 05-30-2006, 07:37 PM

the cheapest ive seen the book priced at is £6.99 on play.com

Keri · 05-31-2006, 05:20 AM

Be warned though, Play.com are not brilliant with book orders...

Also the book may be out earlier than we though, some sites are reporting shipping on June 27

I'm looking forward to it. According to the novel's description, young Faith is a loner from a broken home, and the imaginary friend helps her cope with life and her dreams. Depending on how it's presented in the text, it could explain a lot about Faith's journey to the darker side of her psyche and her later contact with Buffy and the Scoobies.

i read the book last week, but im not the worlds greatest reviewer, but i liked it

keri have a great hols, hope the weather stays nice for ya

Keri · 07-24-2006, 05:35 AM

I started reading this at the weekend and so far I'm pretty impressed. The opening diary entry is totally unFaith and I thought it was going to be a letdown, but there is a reason for that

There is also a really lovely dedication to Eliza at the start of the book.

I'll review it when I'm done
