Description

When the female population of Sunnydale starts strutting its girl power, the push for gender equality seems like a normal expression of '90s feminism. After all, a girl trying out for the football team isn't usually a sign of imminent danger. But when the guys start acting like powerless pawns and a few even turn up dead, Buffy Summers notices that the local womyn's movement has reached a feverish -- and probably unnatural -- pitch.The Slayer is the only one who can see straight during the show more ultimate battle of the sexes. Her friends -- including Giles -- are spellbound by the malignant muses permeating the school. Even the local vampires are acting strange. Alone in her search for answers, Buffy must figure out who's behind the sinister sisterhood...and close the gender gap before the feminist revolution goes too far. show less

Dedication
This is dedicated to some very cool people in my life:



Erin, Brian, and Ben—for being young, bright, talented, wacky, compassionate, hopeful, and all things that are good. I love you!



Y... (show all)vonne Navarro—for being a great friend and inspiration for many years, no matter how far away you are!



Lisa Clancy—How cool can an editor be, anyway?? Thanks for everything!
First words
The blood-covered cleaver hovered in the air, tossing off red-tinted light, and then slammed down, slicing through the thick flesh and clear to the wood beneath it.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)And instead of correcting her father, Allison only smiled, gave her dad a hug, and thought, He's right. He's so right.
