Which is your favorite Buffy Novel?

Mine has to be "Blooded". Its based around season 2 of Buffy about two ancient asian warriors and how Buffy, Willow and Xander become "Entangled" in their feud.

I think it would have to be "Queen of the Slayers". There are a great many that I really like, but I loved this one. It's well written and it picks up with the Scoobies at the school bus at the end of Season Seven. I think it filled a void for me after "Buffy" went off the air and carried on the hero's journey. I would have to give it a 5 stake rating!

eadweard · 09-20-2007, 09:54 AM

Yeah, gotta agree with Pat. I liked the idea of what happened after Chosen; I think a lot of people do: thus, the popularity of the Season 8 comix!

**andrew r** · 09-21-2007, 02:48 PM

^^ Like that wallie Pat! Thanks for this. I've not got any novels

I dunno, doesn't seem the same to me. Though I have now got the first issue of the Season 8 comics. Now I have to get the rest (apart from part 4 as I had that as a present).

Here's a few more golden oldie wallies from "Buffy" Novels:

**andrew r** · 09-22-2007, 01:36 PM

Excellent work Pat! Thank you for all of these. Bangel fans will enjoy one in particular.

recordable2 · 09-22-2007, 01:44 PM

Wow, thanks for very great wallis!!!

eadweard · 09-23-2007, 09:31 AM

Well done, Pat; thanks!

ohiofan · 09-23-2007, 10:36 PM

Thanks, guys! I started re-reading "Paleo" today and this old wallie came to mind:

eadweard · 09-24-2007, 09:18 AM

I like that pic of Sarah; thanks.

**andrew r** · 09-24-2007, 01:50 PM

Cool pic that you've used for the wallie there Pat. And the dinosaur pic isn't bad either!

ohiofan · 09-24-2007, 11:03 PM

It's fun to think of Buffy kicking some T-Rex butt! There's a lot of Oz in this book also.

**andrew r** · 09-25-2007, 01:56 PM

Nice to see Wolf boy's included. I liked Oz, he was funny and cool.

angle.d · 09-25-2007, 03:53 PM

I love Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie, I think it's the best movie to watch in the whole world.

I start watch it when i was 12 years old boy, and i love it.. It's my favorite movie..

ohiofan · 09-25-2007, 07:28 PM

Welcome, Angle.d! You're in the right place if you love "Buffy"!

**andrew r** · 09-27-2007, 02:36 PM

Welcome angle.d! Hope you like it here.

Funny thing was about that film was it wasn't how Joss envisioned Buffy. Poor guy's been messed around by the studios a few times. I still wonder what Alien 4 would have been really like.

ohiofan · 09-28-2007, 11:53 PM

Finished, "Paleo" and it was a great re-read. This would have made a great ep in Season 3.

**andrew r** · 09-29-2007, 02:37 PM

Would it? Could you give a brief review please Pat?

blessed be my angel sarah · 09-29-2007, 04:14 PM

I'm half way through "Sins of the Father" and this is a great read so far. Its a season 3 book. Faith and The Mayor aren't in it yet. But you see into Buffys past at Hemery, her ex Pike comes to visit so her heart is torn between PIke and Angel. Worth a read for sure

ohiofan · 09-30-2007, 12:11 AM

Okay, Andy. The story takes place in Season 3 (I've noticed a lot of Buffy novels do) and like SOTF there is no mention of Faith or the Mayor. It deals with a Paleontologist finding an ancient incantation that will resurrect a very nasty demon. He enlists the aid of a new student to Sunndydale High from Chicago who's big on paleontology himself. Together they manage to use some fossil dino eggs and the old spell to bring four rather nasty dinosaurs back to life which are possesed by four different parts of the demon's spirit. One is a Timimus and the others are T-Rex. To make a long story short, Buffy and the gang (mostly Oz) take on each of these baddies one by one and dispatch them after some rather nasty battles. The bad guy is sent back to his demon dimension and cannot try to come back for another 60 years. There's a side story about "Dingoes Ate My Baby" considering taking on a manger and Angel's around for the Bangle crowd. The only thing that would have made this hard to include as a regular ep would have been the cost of the CGI dinos. It would have cost a lot as they would have had to look like the ones on "Jurassic Park". It would have been fun to watch Buffy taking them out.
