Summary: Angel, She Wrote
Comment: With all the choas that was in "Angel" Season Four, who had time for these little side adventures. Oh well. Midred is a nice old lady who has too much time on her hands, so she decides to help Angel Investigations (she likes angels). She soon finds herself in the middle of a truckers murder, antiqes theft and poltrigiest happeneings. Meanwhile, the rest of the crew are trying to pick up the remnents of their lives (Gunn and Fred are still 'not' fighting, Wes is still in exile, and Angel still loves Cordy, though she dosn't remember). Basicly the books breaks down like this; have you ever wondered how Angela Landsbury (from "Murder, She Wrote") would fair in the Buffy/Angel universe? Well, I haven't either, but here is your answere. It is a fun little book, a fast read, and light on the suspense, but it is all right, just not as heavy as I would have liked.

Summary: one of the best angel books
Comment: I thought this was one of the best ones in the series so far. I like the old lady's character in the storyline. The fight scenes were really good. I think Jeff Mariotte is one of the best Angel/Buffy writers so far.

Summary: A good distraction until Season Four comes out on DVD
Comment: When Cordelia gets a vision about a murdered trucker, the Fang Gang wind up involved in a centuries-old conflict that could get them all killed. Meanwhile, a well-meaning pensioner who's bored with retirement wants to join the team and doesn't seem to be able to take 'no' for an answer, and a couple of strange Englishmen who seem to know an awful lot about what's going on begin interfering with the case. Add in the character dynamics resulting from Wesley being called in to help, and you've got an "Angel" mystery that rips along at a nice pace.
If you're missing the unique tension of Season 4, you could do a lot worse than to pick up this paperback. Mariotte writes with good humor that doesn't insult the reader's intelligence, and it's apparent from the level of detail and care taken in writing the caracters that he's an honest-to-goodness fan of the show.
