Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a well written television series, and the novels are quite good as well. I've enjoyed quite a number, as you can see. I appreciate a series that strives for accurate characterization in the novelizations, and this one shines. |
| Child of the Hunt | Christopher Golden Nancy Holden | A well written and entertaining novel. As clever and entertaining as the show. |
|---|---|---|
| Return to Chaos | Craig Shaw Gardner | A good novel. Ethan Rayne returns. |
| Out of the Madhouse | Christopher Golden Nancy Holden | The first book in the great Gatekeeper trilogy. I read all three books in the Cincinnati Airport and enjoyed them quite thoroughly. |
| Ghost Roads | Christopher Golden Nancy Holden | Spike and Dru make an appearance in this, the second novel in the trilogy. |
| Sons of Entropy | Christopher Golden Nancy Holden | The final, and perhaps best, book of the trilogy. |
| Obsidian Fate | Diana G. Gallagher | A little archeology and a lot of Hellmouth fun. One small continuity error does not distract significantly from an entertaining read. |
| Immortal | Christopher Golden Nancy Holden | A vampire that refuses to die is almost too much for a Slayer stretched between personal duties and her obligations as the Chosen One. This was the first Buffy hardcover. |
| Sins of the Father | Christopher Golden | A character from the Buffy movie visits Sunnydale. Well written and entertaining, but has a minor continuity error cause by the fact that it was written during the third season, but was meant to be set near the end of the third season. |
| Resurrecting Ravana | Ray Garton | Willow and Xander both had interesting roles in this novel. |
| Prime Evil | Diana G. Gallagher | When evil rises in Sunnydale, it's always set on destroying the world. Good thing Buffy and the Scoobies are around to deal with it. |
| Spike & Dru: Pretty Maids All in a Row | Christopher Golden | Take a wild ride through World War II Europe with our favorite evil couple. Extremely well written and a great read. Extra points for skillful use of future continuity. |
| Revenant | Mel Odom | The Hellmouth makes Sunnydale a key location in international crime -- at least when demons are involved. |
| Tempted Champions | Yvonne Navarro | Buffy and Angel might have found a way to achieve happiness, but the price may be too high. |
| Oz: Into the Wild | Christopher Golden | Where did Oz go during the fourth season? His quest to understand the nature of the werewolf. |
| The Wisdom of War | Christopher Golden | I haven't read this yet, which surprises me since Christopher Golden is one of my favorite writers. |
| These Our Actors | Ashley McConnell Dori Koogler | A Willow-centric fourth season novel. |
| Blood and Fog | Nancy Holder | Buffy and Spike share an adventure in London. Includes flashbacks to the old days, when Angelus, Spike, Dru, and Darla terrorized Europe. |
| Chosen | Joss Whedon et al | The giant novelization of the seventh season. |
| The Book of Fours | Nancy Holder | Includes the story of the slayer that died, making way for Buffy to be chosen. |
| The Lost Slayer | Christopher Golden | Four serial novels in a single giant volume. By our favorite Buffy writer. |
