It soon discovers Buffy's secret and hopes the Slayer could be a stronger permanent host.

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:
