BOOK DESCRIPTION


A student named Kevin Sanderson transfers to Sunnydale High and he's extremely lonely until a lecture is given to his class by a man named Daniel that works for Sunnydale's Museum of Natural History. Kevin immediately considers Daniel to be his mentor as they both thoroughly enjoy palaeontology. Unfortunately Daniel's goal is not at all the same as Kevin's who is just trying to fit in. Daniel has found some manuscripts which will help him resurrect dinosaur eggs, and Kevin seems to be the only person with the appropriate eggs. Meanwhile Oz is getting an offer from a woman name Alysa Bardrick to help run their band. She wants to be their manager but the band members of Dingoes Ate My Baby are still unsure as to her intentions. Buffy needs to stop Daniel and Kevin before they perform the ritual to raise the eggs... and if she doesn't stop them in time... how exactly does a Slayer fight a prehistorical ferocious beast?

Canonical issues

See Also: Buffyverse canon



: 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


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