Good Buffy book?

[NightLady]

I have never read a Buffy book but I'd like to. Can you suggest me a good one (that's easy to find on line?)

Depends on what type of book you are after, a character centred one or a more plot centred one. For character centred ones I liked Spike and Dru: Pretty Maids in a Row, and have heard the Faith one, Go Ask Malice is really good. Plot ones, I like Book of Fours and the Lost Slayer series. If you want something to just dip in and out of then the Tales of the Slayers series is good, it isn't about Buffy but about other slayers in different periods

Monster Island is also good, it has both the Scoobies and the Angel team in it!

Can anyone recommend websites where you can read some of these books or even the comics for free w/out having to pay? Thanks.

this is a comic, but this comic is the reason why I gave the newer comics a shot.
'Angel: After the Fall'
Takes place at the end of the last episode on Angel

I liked "One Thing Or your mother" and "Halloween Rain" 🙂

I have some book collections of Buffy that have three stories in them that were previously published individually.

• Buffy the Vampire Slayer 1: Coyote Moon, Night of the Living Rerun and Portal Through Time
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2: Halloween Rain, Bad Bargain and Afterimage
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer 3: Carnival of Souls, One thing or your mother and Blooded (This is my favourite book)

I don't know where to read them online but they are super cheap. In the UK they are a 1p each second hand with £1 postage and in America they are like 20 cents (Which doesn't really mean anything to me!).

I also really like the choose your own adventure ones which you can find online (My Favourite being the Suicide King) and The Wicked Willow trilogy. Hope I could help 🙂

If you like spike, "Spark and Burn" is a good read that explores his backstory.

Can someone recommend a good Buffy centered book? I have gone through the comics and I will start with the books now.
