BOOK DESCRIPTION


A five hundred year old Spanish expedition has been located on the outskirts of Sunnydale. There's a mysterious mirror which is purported to have contained the spirit of Tezcatlipoca that has been uncovered... Only to be lost immediately under very odd circumstances. As Buffy begins to investigate the odd occurrence she finds herself in a fight with a large jaguar that has appeared out of nowhere. Buffy's also starting to have dreams about ancient Aztec temples as well as some very disturbing things regarding Angel. As she and the Scoobies begin to dig deeper into the mystery they realize that Tezcatlipoca's spirit, once released on the world, could very well stop the sun from shining ever again.


TRIVIA


  • Tagline: 'A dark force shows Buffy her destiny'.

  • Characters include: Buffy, Joyce, Giles, Xander, Angel, Cordelia, Willow, and Oz

  • The nightmares the Scooby Gang face foreshadow a similar scenario which would later take place in Fear Itself . For example Willow's is failing in witchcraft, Oz's is knowing the wolf inside him. Incidentally Buffy's fear is an eternity of demons, Giles's is the eradication of Jenny from his memory, and Xander's is a reversion to a hyena-state (see The Pack ).



CONTINUITY


  • Supposed to be set in mid-Buffy Season 3. Mr Trick appears. Most likely appears in an alternative continuity between The Zeppo (since the bomb in the school basement has been found) and Bad Girls (since Mr Trick is alive).



Canonical issues

See Also: Buffyverse canon



: Buffy Comics such as this one are not usually considered by fans as Canonical . Some fans consider them stories from the imaginations of authors and artists, while other fans consider them as taking place in an alternative fictional reality. However unlike Fan Fiction , overviews summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Joss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially Buffy merchandise.


Timing


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