Buffy Summers's adjustment to life at U.C. Sunnydale has not gone smoothly. She feels awkward, insecure and jealous that Willow's all over the college life. So when she is visited by a prophecy of impending danger, the timing couldn't be worse. There's plenty of evil afoot as it is: a unified troop of vampires has descended upon Sunnydale, and tension between Buffy and Willow gets in the way of demon hunting. Before long, a single moment of bad judgement catapults Buffy into an alternate future dimension where vampires reign supreme. Imprisoned in the body of her 24-year-old-self - and confronting friends and foes the likes of which she'd never imagined - the Slayer must uncover her past misstep and correct it, or risk facing a terrifying monster that she herself has created...

The Lost Slayer is a great story and although originally released in four very thin books, it has now been put together as one magnum opus.

The story is dark, twisty and grips you from the word go. Get to see what happens to the Scooby gang in this evil futuristic world, where the Slayer was captured but kept alive so as to stop another being called. Get to see an older, scarier Buffy come to terms with what happened and work out how to end it all, and try and work out what happened to Angel - it seems he's been missing, presumed dead for quite a while.

There isn't much more to say. If you haven't read this story go get it now! If you had read it, go pick up book one - Cos it would be a bit silly to buy another version of the same story, wouldn't it?
