BUFFY: The Lost Slayer
King of the Dead
But that's not the worst of it.
Buffy's enemies are different too...
In this alternate reality, old foes are wreaking havoc in vampire-dominated Southern California. This in and of itself is not surprised. But when Buffy learns that even the vicious Spike is merely a minion, lackey to the chief blood sucker, she is rocked to the core. Fore he serves none other than Giles, the Vampire King.

Review: Fans of The Wish will enjoy this futuristic AU story. Although short, this is one of the stronger books. Taking place soley in the future, everything is explained about all the characters: What happened with the Scoobies after Buffy left, what remains of Anya, Angel, Joyce, Faith, and Giles, everything (except for Cordelia). And, Buffy is reunited with the Slayerettes, as well as the Council and the new Slayer, Anna, and her Watcher, Wesley. It's quite dark, and it leads into the final battle against Buffy and the Vampire King, Giles. Three and a Half Stars.
