Annotation:
Shortly after Buffy discovers she is a vampire slayer, she causes destruction while protecting her classmates.  She gets sent a mental institution, is eventually released and goes off to begin her formal training as a slayer.

Personal Reaction:
I love the artwork in this book.  The artists managed to capture the essence of the actress everyone associates with Buffy The Vampire Slayer.  As far as the plot goes, most of the plot has already been presented through the original movie and bits and pieces throughout the television series.  I enjoyed being able to read the whole story of what happened before the television series started.  I also enjoyed the fact that the book covered the path and struggle Giles had to follow in order to become Buffy's Watcher.
