Buffy has been a TV and publishing phenomenon with countless official and not so official books appearing to cash in the hippest TV series for years. For those who don't know, Buffy Summers is a 16-year-old Californian girl who has been chosen for the awful task of slaying the undead with an array of weapons, a few handy martial arts moves and a killer dress sense. Not only does she have to cope with the armies of vampires that have set up camp in her home town of Sunnydale but there is also the small problem of being a teenager to get to grips with too. The Sunnydale High School Yearbook is a nice, fun addition to the Buffy universe, presenting lots of in joke material in the form of Buffy's High School Yearbook, complete with little handwritten notes from her best friends and lots of reminders about people, places and events that have been part of her vampire-slaying high school years.
For newcomers to the show, a lot of the material is simply too ingrained in backstory to make much sense, but for those devoted to all things Buffy, it will make a great addition to their bookshelf. The photos are great and authors Golden and Holder have put so much enthusiasm and care into the book that you can't help but devour it. More than simply a cash in, this is a worthy and well thought out Buffy tie-in book. --Joanne Wells

Spike and Drusilla are regular villains on the hit TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and now the un-dead couple feature in their first novel. Author Christopher Golden has taken advantage of their eternal vampiric youth to write an historical novel set in Europe in 1940, where the war of the Allies against Nazi Germany is set side by side with the war of the Watchers' Council against vampires. As the current Slayer, Sophie Carstensen, cuts down not only vampires but Nazi soldiers who have invaded her Danish homeland, we may well ask which war is the more brutal.
Spike has promised Dru a magickal artifact, Freyja's Strand, which will enable her to shapeshift and, more importantly, to see her own reflection. Its current owner, the Ice Demon Skrymir, demands that in payment the vampires kill all the Slayers-in-Waiting. And so Spike and Dru go on a joyful killing spree across Europe and North America, finding ever more gruesome and imaginative ways of murdering teenage girls. The reversal of traditional roles, making Spike the central protagonist and turning the Slayer and the Watcher's Council into obstacles to be overcome, will be disturbing to some, and this is not a book for the squeamish. Charismatic they may be, but Spike and Dru have no consciences, no empathy and no remorse. The combination of sadism, death and sexuality makes this one definitely adults only. --Elizabeth Sourbut
