This is just pure fun. Cynthia Boris has put together great questions. A true fan should be measured by their Buffy IQ. I was amazed by the number of questions I could answer and a little frightened too. I think I may have watched some of these episodes one too many times. Then again no that's impossible, I didn't answer all the questions correctly. I will have to study and take the tests again. This is a great book to share with your friends. A must for every would be scoobie.

Cynthia Boris has assembled a high-stakes (sorry!) collection of fun and challenging questions on the first two seasons of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Buffy fans of all ages will get a kick out of it, and will also get to test their knowledge of the show and the characters. The book is well designed and it's easy to find the answers to those questions that absolutely slay you. Required to have on hand at your next "Buffy" get-together.

POP QUIZ

By Cynthia Boris (1999)

RATING: 3/5 Stakes

Pop Quiz is a surprisingly difficult little collection of Buffy trivia questions. Covering Seasons One through Three, the book asks everything from what music is playing when Giles arrives home to find Jenny's body in "Passion" to the name of the boy murdered in the woods in "Beauty and the Beasts." Not all questions are so difficult, and the book is divided up into several different types of questions: some chapters ask you to identify a specific quote, others ask the meaning of a pop culture reference, while still others are devoted to specific people or episodes.

At the end of each chapter is a score box, and if you add up the scores for each chapter you find whether you're a Cordette (the lowest of the low in Buffy trivia knowledge), a member of the Xander Brigade, a student in the Willow Study Group, an Honorary Watcher, or, best of all, the next Slayer. Judging from my score, I'll be hanging out with Willow a lot--which doesn't bother me one bit. Although probably not something one wants to sit down and read from front to back, this is the perfect book for a long bus or car ride with a friend.

This book in my opinion was rubbish, sure there are a few photos from the show, but it was a letdown overall, because it was a quiz book, not episode guides, etc to show. I don't recommend this book. 2 thumbs down!!!!

great quiz. it is more fun if you can get another buffy fan to take it with you. i did decent, considering i started watching in july of last year. but the books have caught me up on some of the earlier episodes so i was not a total dunce. but this book is a must for all fans.

I thought htis book was very good. Just as the televisio series is. But could have been a little more detailed. So you don't actually feel you are reading a book. But watching the television. But out of most of the books i read this would probaly be a good one tell others about. Because, well it is written pretty good. And if you like he series, and like to read then this would be a good book to read before going to bed. And for the guys to, because they will fall asleep thinking about Sarah(buffy).

In the internet, you'll find like hundreds of Buffy quiz, right? If you don't know the right answer..You'll think where the hell did he knows the right ans. Well, if you buy this book, you'll know those quiz too. i promise.

OK.. someone posted earlier that some info was wrong... But all of it is right. Obvioulsy they might have missed an epiosode... She/ He put that Angel was 244 not 246.. well he said he was 244 in the 1st season.. forgot to add on the rest of seasons.. and buffy did kill that guy w/ the big stake. So its cool & rush out & buy it :)

This book was fun and all, but the writer made a few mistakes. (1) Angel is 244 yrs old, not 246 and (2) Faith killed the cloven foot vamp with the big stake, not Buffy! The writer should have brushed up on her Buffy facts before writing it!

OK so the other reviews are sooooo wrong! IN SEASON 1 ANGEL WAS 242 SO IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THAT IN SEASON 4 HE IS 246. THE OTHER REVIEWERS DON'T KNOW THEIR BUFFY!
