Book Reviews of Bad Bargain (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Book Review: great Buffy book
Summary: 5 Stars
Buffy Summer's just wants a normal weekend with her friends. So she signs them up to help with the school rummage sale
But then the opening day everyone who buys something, starts to act oddly. Buffy knows that it isn't normal and that it is her job to stop it!
This book takes place in the second season. It fallows along well with the characters. It was a really fun read and I was hooked.
Even though Spike is one of the villains in this season, he is also one of my favorite characters. Gallagher did a great job making them like the Buffy characters from the show.
I do wish the characters had shown a little more emotion, but in 3rd person it's always harder to do. Great book for any fan.
If you haven't seen the second season then you can still read the book. I am not sure if you could if you've never seen the show. But if you've read the earlier books but not seen the show then this one is good, because is gives backgrounds to past events in the series.
Great book!
Summary of Bad Bargain (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
"Off the rack gives me hives."-- Cordelia, "Out of Mind, Out of Sight"
The Scoobies are used to being personally affected when demonic nasties come to Sunnydale. And they're used to strange things happening at Sunnydale High -- after all, the place is built over the Hellmouth. But they've sealed the Hellmouth, so they don't think anything's out of the ordinary when items to be sold at the first annual band fund-raising rummage sale are stored in the school basement...which, one might recall, is directly above that Hellmouth.
Once the rummage sale begins, it's clear the stuff for sale is far from ordinary. People seem to be strangely affected by the items they're buying -- things from undemonic homes, donated by undemonic people. So the reactions these items are producing are, to say the least, unexpected. Willow's acting weird. So's Xander. And even Buffy's mom bought something....
The situation quickly spins out of control, and the school has to be quarantined...leaving Buffy and Giles to sort things out before whatever demon this is sells them down the river.
