Please do tell if it's good or not. I always tell myself I should buy these kinds of Buffy books, but so far I only have a few.

Meh. I have it and don't like it very much. There are some neat things and fun facts, but the whole book just seems like a bunch of nitpicking certain aspects of every episode. It got annoying after awhile.

They're three thick volumes filled with episode guides(with excerpts from original scripts and other fun facts) a few essays, color pics and other fun stuff. Buy them, they're great. And pretty. |

cheers for the explanation sky.
they really are pretty.
When I was younger I sent my mum out to buy me some buffy books (as in the fictional kind) and she came back with the watchers guide volume one...I think it was during season 4 was airing...or maybe 3...??
I havent looked at them for years mind, I also suggest the Monster Guide book by Chris Golden who also did these watcher guides (with nancy holder). More factual goodness and glossy picture pages. ;D

Have you read it? Is it just episode guides?

The watcher guides sound good! I have the most recent edition of the "Bite Me" Unofficial guides to Buffy.
I like it, but at the same time the author misses alot of stuff that even I pick up (in the nitpicks, facts and plot) and it's good but not fantastic!
