Continuity
Canonical issues
- Buffy novels, such as this one are not considered by most fans as part of canon. They are usually 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 officially Buffy merchandise.
Timing
- Suppose to be set in BtVS's second season, after Spike and Dru, have arrived in Sunnydale, but before Angel has lost his soul.
- Stories that take place around the same time in the Buffyverse:
