Customer Review #1:
Another excellent Slayer volume
This book covers the sixth season of Buffy and is the next volume in Keith Toppings Slayer episode guides (the previous 5 seasons are covered in a single volume, also available from Amazon). Keith does his usual thorough job covering each episode in detail. Even if you disagree with his views, you cant dispute that he has a deep love for the show and a healthy respect for all those involved in its production.As I have stated in other reviews, Keith Toppings Buffy and Angel books are the best unauthorised episode guides on the market. If you are a serious fan of Buffy and Angel, you only need the official guides and these books.

Customer Review #2:
The author of Slayer provides a 6th season update
For those who liked Keith Toppings British perspective in his earlier Slayer volume, here is an update. This book covers only the 6th season - Buffys resurrection, the Trioka, the musical, Willow-as-evil, etc. Each episode receives 5-to-8 pages of coverage, organized under various thematic headings: Plot summary, music, memorable quotes, comments on the womens clothing, continuity errors, logic flaws, pop culture references, etc. Topping seems to have caught everything, down to the tiniest continuity error.There are also separate essays on (1) series creator Joss Whedon, (2) the network switch to UPN, (3) an update on BtVS novels (about a paragraph on each), (4) an update on BtVS and the internet, and (5) predictions for the 7th season, which was the last season of this underappreciated series that never gained the viewership it deserved.

Customer Review #3:
Excellent book for the best Buffy season
Season six is in my opinon the best Buffy season ever. If you dont like it read this book. It will change your mind. If it doesnt, then go back to watching Bewitched or Buffy season one. I guess the true spirit of the Slayer is lost on you.
