Review: This was, by far, the worst
Buffy novelization/novel I have ever read. Sure, it's a cute little
tribute towards the show but they could have done a LOT better. The
amount of grammatical and spelling errors on a single page is around 5,
so that's about thousands of mistakes in the novel. IT's almost as if
someone had to type this whole thing up in under an hour and then
sent it immediately ro press. Seriously, no proofreading or anything.
And trust me, you'll get that feeling as soon as you start reading the
book. And at first you don't think it'll bother you so much, but after a
while you get really frustrated with it because it makes reading very
very difficult. Plus the punctuation is just abysmal. There's also the
fact that they just breezed right past the first half of the season,
leaving out a lot of sections that had important details in them.
However, once they get into the final episodes, the pace slows down and
the blanks are filled in. One thing to note is that this novel is based
on the shooting scripts so there are some lines in it that didn't make
it into the final cut of the episodes. Anyway, this was a horridly done
novel. Go watch the episodes instead, they're a much better use of your
time. |
