After Leo helps Nina get her Slayer powers back and then sacrifices himself for her, Nina can barely pick up the pieces. The Watchers’ castle is now a refuge for hurt demons, but there is little harmony or joy within its walls, especially since Nina’s twin sister, Artemis, has run away with her girlfriend, Honora. When Nina hears rumors of new supernatural problems – all the growing signs point towards Artemis and Honora as the source. How can Nina save her sister and the rest of the world at the same time.
I love Buffy so much that I persisted through the chaos and my growing anger at Artemis. I did like the introduction of more characters from the Buffy-verse. And that the mysterious stalker is finally reveled in the end. Students who read #1 will of course want this. I am curious to hear how much students have been actually reading it.
