A review by bookdingo
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine, Volume 4: Welcome to the Team by Andrew Chambliss, Joss Whedon

3.0

One thing I'm enjoying about this season is how the writers are making sure the "no more magic" thing is consistent and
Spoiler a dying Dawn
fits into that narrative quite well.

On the other hand, Xander gonna' Xand. I'm disappointed that underneath all the added international adventures, Xander really hasn't changed. Once again, he's hung up on being the hero instead of the sidekick. Perhaps the new close-to-home danger is the beginning of an arc for Xander to finally stop being a dick.
