It may be because I haven't read the first part or it may be because this novel is just plain bad, but I simply couldn't believe how disjointed and jumbled the plot is. There's no point talking about the characters - their psychology is so basic it's laughable, but even the plot with its miscellaneous monsters and villains can't focus. I'm sure it makes a great visual (it's obviously written for television) but as a story it doesn't stand up and I detest this mixing of mythologies and cheap tricks. (  ) Cecilturtle | Apr 13, 2009 |  The young slayer, August, refuses to stop fighting until either she, or Buffy, is dead, so another Slayer will rise to continue fighting. She loses, and Buffy uses her body as a distraction to break out of her cell next time they come to feed her. She is horrified by what is out there, but manages to contact the Council, who tell her they will send an extraction team. It is a grown up version of her friends, but the bad news is what happened to Giles. In her own time, Willow realises the Prophet has taken over Buffy's body, and that there is little they can do to stop her. http://superprose.blogspot.com/2006/1...

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0743411862, Mass Market Paperback)Consequences Sunnydale has always been a haven for creatures of the underworld. But when Buffy Summers awakes in a possible future, she is stunned to discover that Southern California has fallen under vampire rule. Buffy learns that her Slayerettes have already rallied together against the new order. But they're different now: Willow is a full-fledged sorceress, Xander a battle-scarred, humorless man, and Oz a frightening split personality. Almost more shocking is that Faith's gone, and a new Slayer has been called in her stead. Buffy's astonished at the terrifying alternate reality for which only she herself is to blame. Back in the present, Buffy's friends can't figure out why the Slayer is behaving so strangely. They don't realize that the Prophet has inhabited her body. Either they're going to have to bring their friend back or Buffy herself, still trapped in the future, will have to find her own way home -- but not before confronting her worst nightmare....
