Resumen del Editor

Original cast members from the beloved TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, reunite for an all-new adventure about connections that never die—even if you bury them.

A decade has passed since the epic final battle that concluded Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV). The game-changing spell that gave power to all potential Slayers persists. With new Slayers constantly emerging, things are looking grim for the bad guys. Rebellious vampire Spike (James Marsters) is working undercover in Los Angeles with his old pal Clem (James Charles Leary) when he meets feisty, rookie Slayer, Indira (Laya DeLeon Hayes), who wants Spike to be her mentor. Stakes intensify as Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter) emerges from an alternate reality where she alone is the Slayer, and Buffy Summers doesn’t exist. Cordelia enlists Spike’s help with a classic big bad terrorizing her world…his ex, Drusilla (Juliet Landau). Giles (Anthony Head), Anya (Emma Caulfield Ford), Jonathan (Danny Strong), and Tara (Amber Benson) also return, but through the years and the vastness of the multiverse, not everyone is who they used to be…

Slayers: A Buffyverse Story is written and directed by Amber Benson and Chris Golden, and co-directed by Kc Wayland.

Now available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

I could cry

I’ve never had so many emotions at once. 10/10. So GOOD. So FUNNY. Thank you Amber and all involved, seriously.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH

it's so great to hear these actors again!
This story is so well written and performed, I've definitely found a new favorite audio production.
I hope this team will make more books in the future!!

So good!

Incredible! As a huge fan of the show I’ve always wanted it to come back, and this was just perfect. I hope there’s more in the future.

A tremendous return to the Buffyverse

Such an amazing and thoughtful story. The characters are written with such care. The performances are amazing and it’s great to return to the universe. As a huge fan it’s perfection. I loved it. Please make more!

Sunnydale Reborn.

So watching Buffy all these years over and over I was ready to see what they would come up with to reinvigorate the story. It gave me goosebumps at some points because it reminded me of Buffy in some instances. I know it can't be the same as it was but it wasn't bad at all for a story taking place in the universe. If you're a Buffy fan don't judge it too harshly enjoy it for what it is!

WONDERFUL, GLAD THEY FINALLY DONE SOMETHING

wonderfull, I still wish it was a reboot tv show bjt better than nothing

Amazing!!

I absolutely cannot wait to hear what happens next! Audible you better be doing a sequel!

Grateful

Couldn’t speak higher of this ingenious reentry into a world that I’ve loved and missed so much. Forever grateful for audible and this incredible cast for making this happen. So surreal and so special. QUEEN C 4EVER. Excuse me, I have to call everyone I’ve ever met, right now about Slayers.

Couldn't Stop Listening

Loved it! if you were a fan of Buffy and Angel, this is THE story for you. This audible was engaging, though fully written, and had the sound effects you'd expect in a TV or movie production. went by too quickly. I can't wait for the 2nd story to be published!

James and Juliet are terrific together.... again.

I loved this. I thought it was a good story to pick up a decade after the end of the Angel series, updating some of the original themes (like the "virgin sacrifice" of slayers) and giving continuing characters more room to develop.

Spike fan here-- I loved the way James Marsters kept his recognizable Spike voice, but went more cockney, more bad-boy, so that his good/bad dynamic could be further mined for fun. His voice-overs and Indira's "fan girl" commentary also updated the old story and gave it a sharper contemporary edge.

James and Juliet (Spike and Dru) just effortlessly slid back into their high-intensity romance, and Dru was charismatic enough that it was believable that Spike might betray his cause for love of her.

Of course the other returning characters were also compelling, especially (for me) Charisma Carpenter as Cordelia and Anthony Head as Giles. Oh, and of course James Leary as Clem with the guilty conscience!

A couple criticisms, more my problem than the story-- the Anya/Anyanka/Tara subplot was a bit confusing to me, as Anyanka and Tara's storylines seemed too similar. And the climactic action episode was also confusing to me because there was so much physical action (hard to render in dialogue) and there were several different venues. But it was all great fun even if I wasn't sure who was doing what to whom.

I hope there are other episodes. Time to ship Spordy!
