I really wanted to love this book, but honestly I had to keep forcing myself to skim the book and finish it.  There’s 3 novels in this one book, and none of them really wowed me.  Each one had a plot that had already been similarly played out in the show.   Except for the last story, which just seemed a bit out of the realm of the Buffyverse.  And I feel like the authors didn’t fully grasp the characters and their voices.  The whole book just seemed a little forced.  If you’re into sci-fi and fantasy, check it out.  But as a major Buffy fan, this one misses the mark.
