Editorial Reviews for  'Wolves at the Gate (Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, Volume 3)'
 
Product Description
Vampires that, at will, can transform into wolves, panthers, insects, or fog invade the Slayer base of operations in northern Scotland, and not only walk away unscathed, but in possession of Buffy's scythe, the symbol of Slayer power worldwide. Buffy and the Slayer-legion travel to Tokyo in order to learn more about their dangerous new foes, as Xander journeys to Transylvania to solicit the only person they've ever known to possess such power - Dracula!

More Vampires at the Gate
This book brought back Dracula which was great. I'm not sure about the new love interest for Buffy. It seems that the men writing this may just be living out they're own fantasies.
 
yet not Whedon
It' amusing, clever, sharp, and it has a bite... as the rest of the serie, it's still has that spark tht got my eye from the very first season. Though this book isn't written by Whedon, it stll has the main personality of the serie. A nice chapter for the 8th season. (watch out! spoiler!> I can't stand the Mecha-Dawn... they could just skip that part...)
 
I liked it. Keep them coming.
Wolves at the Gate meets the standards set by Joss Whedon and the show. The one that sticks out most to me is Joss' habit of giving his characters love after a long dry spell and then suddenly and tragically taking it away.

However, I found Buffy's whole lesbian experience to be silly and completely out of her character. Unfortunately, this is something that Joss never really gets right for whatever reason. Overall, I think the story is interesting and I enjoyed seeing Dracula again.
 
The Eighth Season Finale
In one word, excellent. This is the last in a three volume series of what would have been the eighth season of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer series. The drawings are fine (some excellent in fact), but its the story that I'm most interested in. The writing and the humor is faithful to what the TV series was. I recommend all fans of the Buffy universe to get all three volumes in order to have the whole story. And yes, Volume 3 has a cool ending. Personally, I think that there is enough interest within the BTVS fan base, for Joss to make a profitable movie. If not a story with Buffy herself, one with another Vampire Slayer. Anybody else besides me interested in a Faith The Vampire Slayer movie? Of course, all original actors and actresses are a must to make it work.
 
Excellent
I received my book in only a couple days in excellent condition, as described ... I would definitely order from this seller again in the future!
