Book Description

[Spoiler warningSpoiler warning]: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Sunnydale Drive-In finally reopens with a long evening festival of classic movies. Whilst Buffy, Willow, and Cordelia show little interest, Xander, spends his afternoons on the drive-in's work crew. Buffy is distanced whilst werewolves vanish like ghosts and odd dated vampires are seen throughout town.

Balsamo is promising to a select few star seating for upcoming chaos.

Canonical issues

Buffy novels, such as this one are considered by most fans to not be part of Buffyverse canon. They are not considered as official Buffyverse reality, but are novels from the authors' imaginations. However unlike fanfic, 'overviews' summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as official Buffy merchandise.

Timing

Stories that take place around the same time in the Buffyverse:
