Book Description

Publication Date: October 1999

Of Shapeshifters and Skinwalkers....

As long as there have been vampires, there has been the Slayer. one girl in all the world, to find them where they gather and to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their numbers.

The seedy carnival looks like just the thing to give Buffy and her best buds, Xander and Willow, a break from staking bloodsuckers. Some greasy food, a few cheap thrills -- what more could a Slayer ask for?

But then Buffy senses something evil behind this carnival. Xander and Willow aren't so sure. They don't buy Buffy's notion that the carneys are somehow connected to the corpes turning up around Sunnydale. It doesn't help that her two best friends are each interested in someone at the carnival. Which puts the burden of proof on Buffy.

Can she find out what's going on in time to save her friends?

Or has the Slayer become the prey?

This review is from: Coyote Moon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

John Vornholt really impressed me with this first rate teen thriller based on the tv show. This book didn't take me that long to read - thats only because I couldn't put it down. I strongly reccommend this to teens and Buffy fans.

It is about Buffy, Willow and Xander eager to take a break from slaying vampires and what-not so they take a trip to the carnival that's come to Sunnydale, only to find out the two sexiest carnies are actually werecoyotes!

Awesome book - don't let this fly by!

Coyotes and shapeshifters...whoa! I loved this book it was really good! I read it in one day! It made me feel I wanted to read on! The new characters were cool like Rose and it went into detail about the corpse which I love! The main characters like Buffy, Willow and Xander were so cool in this one and funny at the same time! I recomend this book to all Buffy fans! Shame I can't vote more than five! If you don't like this you suck! This book is the best! I loved the coyotes when they dug the graves up and how Buffy said to the carnie worker she wanted to hurl when she was snooping! The part when they said coyote moon was back as well was the best. So get out your house and buy this now! PS get child of the hunt as well!

This review is from: Coyote Moon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Book 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

Although this book is not quite as entertaining as _Halloween Rain_, it merits a high rating for its well-written content. If you watch the television series and enjoy the episodes written by Joss Whedon, you'll find that the intellectual writing of John Vornholt will keep you reading. The action in the book is sparse, but there are a few tense moments where you worry just a bit for Buffy. Like the previous books, the focus of this book is mostly on Buffy, Xander, and Willow... with a little Giles thrown in the pot, but so far, in this book and the ones before it, Cordelia and Angel content has been lacking. The mood of this book is not quite as dark as _Halloween Rain_, but I found the book very well-written... but lacking in the "teen-talk" and "Xanderisms" the television series is known for. If you're looking for a well-written book with a good plot (a carnival and some powerful sorcerors who walk with the night), _Coyote Moon_ is an investment worth making!
