Awesome Book!

Perfect book to pass the time!

Another good book

This is the type of book I get a little sad when I get near the end. Must read!

1 of the best Buffy books

This is 1 of my favorite books ever, 1 f my favorite story lines was Blood and Brine I loved the pirate slayer. My favorite story in this book was the last 1 where Buffy, Willow, and Xander go back in time I loved the fact that Buffy got to see her mom again and that she wasn't stuck with Dawn for once. I think that when the show brought Dawn on the show and killed Buffy's mom is when they ruint Buffy, from the 5th season on the show slowly went downhill. I HIGHLY recommend this book it is definitely the best Buffy book in the series.

I loved this Book..........

I've always love BTVS because of the Mythology of the Slayer line and how she's Chosen and all of that, I also love the characters and how they're written so well.....But i've often wondered about Past Slayers, what they were like, and what their life was like because as we've always known, Buffy is just one of many Slayers throughout the Years. I loved this Book and how it told about Different Slayers from Different Era's and how that particular Era effected their Duty as the Slayer. I've seen other Reviews where people ask what good a 'Pirate' Slayer would be and if you really think about it, all of the Vampires that Migrate from country too country more than likely use Ships too Travel in because of the Dark Rooms beneath the Surface, she could stop that from happening.My Favorite story in this book was probably "Stake out on Rush Street", among a few other's....I also liked the one about the Civil War Slayer and the one about the Slayer who fought Dracula........I thought it was a very good book and I recommend it to other fans of Buffy and especially Fans of the Buffy Books.

A great book for Buffy fans!!!

Tales of the Slayer Volume II while not as good as the first is still worth buying. There is a tale of a slayer in medieval Japan. Another tale of a slayer who chose love over duty with tragic consequences. A tale of a slayer during the Civil War (not Lucy Hanover) who served in the army disguised as a man. There is tale of a Scrooge-like watcher who gets visited by the ghosts of slayer past, present, and future(Buffy). There is a tale of a slayer in London who battles Dracula. There are a few more tales buy I won't spoil the book for you. Buy it now, you will not be disappointed

Fantastic Voulme!!!

I was very pleased with the book but at the same time a little dissapointed. The plots and time periods were absolutly fantasic. I loved all the stories, but at the same time, I would have loved to seen a slayer set in the ancient Eygpt or a Hispanic Slayer at least. I hope that they will release Tales of the Slayer Volume III...
