some research, Giles discovers that the faery is of
Russian brand called the domovoi. They're nasty faeries

Review: Really a good book and since
I love all this stuff about faeries it made it even more
fun to read. The first scene with Willow baby-sitting was
really creepy and extremely well written. It's every
baby-sitter's worst nightmare! The faeries were really
interesting to learn about and made for an intriguing
plotline. I'm glad that this novel took a different
change of pace and didn't concentrate so much on Buffy,
instead choosing to focus on Willow as it's main
character. The author did a great job of portraying
Willow and her emotions. The finale battle was really
cool, especially picturing the little faeries carrying
"micro-machine" sized weapons. I look forward
to more from Mel Odom; his novel contains such detail
that it makes for a really great read. |
