Seven Crows is an original novel based on the television series Buffy and Angel.
[edit] Book Description
Somewhere on the border between Mexico and Arizona lies a town where Riley Finn and his wife Samantha have been assigned to work. Their mission is to track down recent deaths in the desert area, there's a chance there might be some supernatural occurrence in relation to the deaths. But when they decide to call in reinforcements, they didn't realize that they'd be calling in backup from two different sources; Sunnydale and Los Angeles. Buffy and Angel join the married couple on their investigation and the unlikely team of Sam and Angel begins to make Riley double think their team in the first place. Riley also knows the increase in crows in the area, possible portents from a poem he remembers from long ago...
[edit] Trivia
- Tagline: 'Buffy and Angel, and . . . Riley?'.

[edit] Canonical issues
-
- Buffy/Angel books such as this one are not usually considered by fans as canonical. Some fans consider them stories from the imaginations of authors and artists, while other fans consider them as taking place in an alternative fictional reality. However unlike fan fiction, overviews summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Joss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially Buffy/Angel merchandise.
