WrensReads Review:
Well, Buffy time-travels… a big-bad we have seen before is the big bad in the future… a huge deal happens…
Also we meet the last living slayer in that time:
…and she doesn’t really know Buffy all that well either. She was pretty upset there were no books about her in the future. Come on Buffy, you were famous for your time.
Anyway, I loved this volume. It reminded me a lot of the later seasons of Buffy plus a little Doctor Who.
