It is a such a fun book and i really this take on the tie in elements. I have always been a big buffy fan. This book was exactly what I wanted. Willow was my favorite character in the OG series. I really loved that becasue this book was so stteped in history and the OG character were really intergral to this story. I loved that it folowed willow daughter. I also loved how frankie was such a diffeerent main character from buffy and really enjoyed how this scooby gangs deveoped thoughtoutt his read. i loved seeing past characters and I am so curious to see where the rest of this series goes!! It's been 13 years since Buffy Summers the vampire slayer and her friends did a spell to awaken all slayers worldwide. Now Buffy's best friend Willow and her daughter Frankie Rosenberg may be what's left to save the world. It looks like all the slayers including Buffy may be dead. We find out Frankie's parentage is a mystical one. Her mother Willow is a great witch her father, if you had to describe him, was mystical energy. Frankie has trained as a witch under her mother and now seems she is also a Slayer…? Frankie and her best friend Jake who is also Oz's nephew are looking for a way to help all the Slayers including Buffy. This book takes place after season 7. This history does not follow the same as the comic books it's a whole new take. However, it does have regulars from the series like Willow, Oz, and Spike. While I don’t think this is canon like the Dark Horse comics are this is an interesting way to go. I like the idea of Frankie’s parentage. Not sure how I feel about the return of Oz. I like Frankie as a character. The other characters are…okay. On the downside, I don’t feel there was a lot of plot. It was mostly an introduction to the new characters. I also don’t feel this book would bring new readers or new fans. I think it would make sense to those of us who have watched the show but confusing to those who have not watched it. I hope they keep writing books and comics to keep the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series alive. I know there are going to be 2 more books in this series and that there are 2 other prequels out now (one on Spike and the other on Tara). Anything that keeps the series active I will enjoy. I was skeptical of this book before my read, but I have to say Kendare really translated the tone of the show perfectly in this book. All the characters and situations felt like a continuation of the show with the right amount of humor and tension. The OG crew brought back actually had a purpose rather than as nostalgia-bait which I appreciated. The new crew felt a bit cookie-cutter but I have a feeling they will flesh them out as the series progresses. It's not a perfect novel. There are some odd choices made for the characters, mainly Willow. A lot of questions go unanswered no doubt setting up the future novels which makes for an exciting series but detracts a bit from this lone novel. Overall, I enjoyed going back to the Buffy-verse and can't wait for the next novel! Buffy will always be one of my favorite TV shows, and the resurgence of novels set in the Buffyverse (or even alternate universes) makes me incredibly happy. I loved this book, and I am so glad that there is a sequel. I hope this means that this will become a series. If you love Buffy, you'll love this book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
