Summary: Buffy's 24 year old self
has been locked in her prison for the past 5 years. One
day they finally throw the new Slayer, August, in there
with her. The confused girl tries to kill Buffy but Buffy
accidentally snaps her spine, killing the current Slayer.
Buffy finally escapes from her prison when the guards
arrive after the scuffle. Once escaped, she finds out
that Sunnydale has been taken over by vampires with
humans helping them out of fear. After a call to the
Watcher's Council, Buffy meets up with the extraction
team which is made up (among others) of Willow who is now
a powerful sorceress, Xander a humorless man now and Oz
who can change into a werewolf whenever he chooses. In
the present Buffy has been possessed by the Prophet. Once
Willow has found this out, they realize they need to
prevent Buffy's body from leaving Sunnydale. While the
Prophet is leaving Sunnydale, Camazotz appears and tears
the entity out of Buffy's body. The Prophet is actually
Zotziloha, Camazotz's wife. After that fight Buffy was
captured and imprisoned. In the future, Buffy is informed
that Giles is now a vampire. More than a vampire, he's
become the king of the vampires. |

Review: Great book! Even better than
the first one. This novel was terrifying to read and had
me on the edge of my seat most of the time. Seeing the
future of Sunnydale and the awkwardness between the
Scooby Gang was heartbreaking, but that makes a good
novel right? When you feel emotional pain for the
characters then you know the novel has you hooked. And
this book did exactly that for me. The only part I was
surprised at was the fact that I wasn't
surprised that Giles is the vampire king. After all that
had happened in the future I guess I kind of expected it.
The storyline with Zotziloha/the Prophet was just bizarre
and I'm not really sure how it ties into the whole
storyline, but hopefully it will, otherwise it was kind
of pointless. I really don't know why I get so much
pleasure out of reading other people's pain. Well not
really pleasure because it makes me sad inside, but a
story like this has me satisfied because I felt so many
emotions. Definitely read this book! |
