A group of vampire-assassins are travelling into the past in an attempt to kill previous Slayers, and disrupt the lineage of Slayers. Buffy is forced to confront the vampires across history; she stumbles across time periods on her quest to stop them. During her travels she comes across a Druidic stronghold being invaded by Romans, an American Civil War Battlefield, Angelus during the French Revolution, and she fights off against unusual creatures from ancient Sumerian mythology.

[edit] Timing

  • It's place in the wider Buffyverse chronology is presently unknown until closer to the release date, but most likely it will take place in Buffy Season 2 since many of the recent novels have been placed there (with the exception of Blackout).

[edit] Canonical issues

Main article: Buffyverse canon
Buffy novels, such as this one are generally not considered by fans as part of canon. They are usually not viewed 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 Fox, who in turn may or may not have sought appoval from Whedon (or his office). The book will be published as official Buffy merchandise.
