Book Description

7 Oct 2002 Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Curtain Call

Willow Rosenberg is disappointed when her best friend Buffy, aka the Chosen One, decides to drop drama class in order to concentrate on her Slaying. Willow decides to stick with the class on her own, however, and this once-shy wallflower is pleased to find herself way bitten with the acting bug.

It's no surprise to Buffy and the Scoobs, then, when Willow decides to pitch in with the drama club's latest production. Of course, Sunnydale being Hellmouth Central, Willow soon discovers a link between drama and magick; in fact, many ancient Greek performances were actually invocations to the Gods. Spike, who in his pre-vamp days had been a great patron of the arts, confirms this fact. He "also" takes an unusual level of interest in Willow's extracurricular activities. When strange paranormal occurrences -- and the appearance of a ghost or two -- threaten Willow's safety, the witch starts to wonder if it isn't time to exit, stage left....

4.0 out of 5 stars Spotlight on Spike 3 Oct 2002
By J. Davitt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Like other reviewers, the ending puzzled me. I reread it several times and still didn't get it. However, the rest of the book was good enough that it didn't matter as much as it might have.

This was an expanded 'Fool For Love' in a way, the episode in which we first meet William with his doomed love for Cecily. Having that story fleshed out and seeing the consequences of her rejection of William was fascinating. The scenes with the four vampires were very enjoyable.
I didn't miss Buffy; Willow is a strong enough character to carry a story and Spike is too; when you have both of them, that's plenty to keep fans happy.
The book was well written and the characters were true to those on the show.
Just a pity about those last few pages.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wasted potential 24 Sep 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Being a Spike fan, I was excited to see a book that would have him in a prominent role. In this, I wasn't disappointed. However, I can say that the story of Spike's past was the main reason I kept reading the book.

The beginning starts off slowly, and includes some unnecessary information--often repeated throughout the book--that doesn't add to the meaning or plot of the story. Willow's section is the most tedious, partly due to the difficulty in making her a vibrant character on paper. In contrast, the characterizations in the Spike section were very well done, and the sub-plot was engaging.

The idea behind the story was a good one. If the ending had been less confusing and muddled, and had tied the two plotlines together with much more of a dramatic punch, then it would have been an excellent Buffy novel. As such, it's only worth reading if you want to know more about who Spike was before, and immediately after, being turned into a vampire.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trying not to give it away...... 9 Sep 2002
By Jennie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Now I've read alot of Buffy books but this is the first one I've ever been compeled to review. It was Fantastic we get to see some of Spike just before and after he was turned. Seeing the differences in his charicter was Amazing.
It was Fun having Willow as the focus of the book, this is a definite must have for Willow fans.
the interaction between W/S was great,good banter.
one Suggestion to the Fans re watch "Fool for Love" before reading the book.
