Summary: Not very good
Comment: I checked this book out of my local library, and boy was I glad I hadn't bought it because after the fourth chapter i wanted to stop reading. It really is a boring book compared to other buffy books, such as child of the hunt, or note from underground.I would recemend not buying this book.

Summary: "Well, Gosh!"
Comment: You just can't keep a bad Slayer down - not in Sunnydale, at least!
Buffy finds herself up against a body-hopping nightmare with attitude - a single intelligence animating all sorts of evil undead nasties, with a special taste specifically for her and her Scooby Gang. What - or who - could it be? Buffy's best clue should probably be who is suddenly haunting her dreams: Faith the Fallen, still in coma in the hospital, but active as hell on Buffy's psychic psyche. Every time the battle-weary Slayer falls asleep, her arch-nemesis combats Buffy in "Dreamland" - a place Faith has learned to navigate especially well, given the several months she's been in that netherworld between life and death. Which raises the old question as to whether or not, if one dies in a dream, they will also die in real life - but then (so Faith informs her), Buffy is already dead...
Veteran Buffy series writer Jane Espenson penned this little goodie, which heralds the welcome arrival of that great diabolical duo, Faith and the Mayor - yes, the discarnate intelligence stalking the Scoobies is, of course, the Mayor (which is revealed in the opening panels, so I'm not spoiling anything) - to Buffy's comic book adventures. The artwork, in common with all the Buffy graphic novel series, is spotty - sometimes good, sometimes not so good - but the story is strong, and the writing of Faith and especially the Mayor is fabulous. There are also some nice tie-ins between the third and fourth season of the show (when this story is set), bridging the demise of Sunnydale High and Buffy's discovery of the military underground Initiative.
Given that the evil Mayor Wilkins is such a nerd, there's as much humor as horror to this particular story, making it one of the most entertaining the series has to offer. Perhaps his own exit line from Season Three - the best ever, in the show - sums "Haunted" up best: "Well, gosh!"
