Phew, after pushing myself through the really totally weird Season 8 Including meet and greet with nearly ALL of the characters Buffyverse I was really happy to read the first chapter of season 9, Which brings Buffy and her friends and foes back to basics. Somehow They (or Joss Whedon) manage to get the turn from the end of season 9 to a good and sometimes Surprising Story That reminds of the true Buffy business did we all like. I like the new characters and I think everything is really promising - can not wait to read No 2.!
