** COMPLETELY UNAUTHORIZED ** This collection of irreverent and surprising essays about the popular television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer includes pieces by leading science fiction and fantasy authors. Contributors include bestselling legend David Brin, critically acclaimed novelist Scott Westerfield, cult-favorite vampire author Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, and award-winner Sarah Zettel. The show and its cast are the topics of such critical pieces as Lawrence Watt-Evans's “Matchmaking in Hellmouth” and Sherrilyn Kenyon's “The Search for Spike's Balls.” An informed introduction for those not well acquainted with the show, and a source of further research for Buffy buffs, this book raises interesting questions concerning a much-loved program and future cult classic. Customer reviews:  A great re-read, 2008-06-24
I re-read "Seven Seasons of Buffy" in a lull between book deliveries and enjoyed it about as much as last time. It's a collection of essays by sci-fi writers on what was definitely one of the best series on TV IMHO. It leans a little heavy on romance and "who's Buffy's ideal man", but is a very good read overall. Intelligent writers, good content.
If you liked Buffy you'll love this.
 Ok--but I expected more, 2008-03-20
I was expecting a semi-academic work. Instead, the collected articles seem to be on par with what I would expect from a fan website--not a book for purchase. If you love all things Buffy, you may find some of the articles interesting. If you're looking for an academic analysis of Buffy, look elsewhere.
