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.

So good!

This audiobook is amazing! Loving the cast, the storyline is great. This will be on repeat for weeks! “I can be the Faith to your Buffy!” “My best friend Spike!”

Great romp!

This was such fun. I loved what they did with the story. Just the right amount of camp. I really hope there’s another one in the works!

amazing.

love it so much. love hearing these alternate storys told in the original voices. couldn't ask for anything more ❤️❤️❤️💪💪💪

Audible - more like this please

I loved the performances and the dynamic audio is so well done. This kind of storytelling was new for me so I got a little lost the first time they did a scene change, but then I caught on. Recommend headphones, particularly for fight scenes as motion is conveyed from one side to the other.

I feel like the group dynamic is so much better than the original show. Much more compassion for the characters that are hurting and none of the toxic dynamics labeled as friendship (after years of therapy, the original frustrates me as much as I love it), but still with the heart and fighting for the good despite the bad. Plus lots of humor :D

By the end of the original show, I didn't much like Willow/Xander/Buffy anymore so personally I don't miss them one bit. This has all my favorite characters plus the new slayer Indira is lovely. Another shot for characters that maybe didn't get the best from the original or like Clem, a character I didn't know I needed more time with. Such a delight.

Story went along great until it stumbled slightly on final approach to the end. It wasn't so much bad as perhaps a difficulty of the medium? How do you "show and not tell" when you have zero visuals... hmmm. I found a couple bits repetitive because there were a few instances where characters had to restate things when a new person entered the scene. Repetition may have also been due to treating aspects of the storytelling like episodes of a TV show you'd have to wait a week to continue. So maybe I only noticed because I listened to it in one sitting instead of coming back one episode at a time. Solid conclusion, but not so final that they couldn't continue this story down the line. *hint hint nudge nudge*

I think this format is a great way to continue beloved franchises without "rebooting" them. Would love to see more in the Buffyverse as well as others (Stargate Atlantis needs a proper series finale for one). THIS is the sort of media dedicated fans want, not the hash that studio execs seem determined to churn out.

The Big Bad is BACK (and it’s So Good)!

*Spoilers Ahead* I went into this recording with high expectations after seeing the cast and creators at New York Comic Con, and it did not disappoint. I was hesitant about Cordelia taking the lead as the sole slayer from an alternate universe, and I thought I would miss Willow, Buffy and Xander, but the story was really well done and I absolutely adored Indira as the new bright eyed and bushy tailed protege. This new story captured the same magic as the series as well as the heart. I was especially touched by Cordelia and Indira’s sisterly bond and their final scene together as well as Spike and Dru’s reunion, with all its twists and turns and wonderful wickedness. Thank you to everyone who made this project possible. You’ve brought the Buffyverse magic back in a big way, and I love you for it!

Amazing!!!!

I can’t believe they’re back!! I fell in love with BTVS when I was a kid and I’m so glad they brought it back!! It’s fresh, exciting, funny, and nostalgic all at once!

Truly SLAYTASTIC!

I grew up watching BTVS only to end up owning the entire series on DVD and still rewatch episodes to this day. This production was EVERYTHING I as a fan could want, loved the storyline and hearing the voices of some of my favorite characters Spike, Drusilla, Cordelia, Giles etc.. gave me major nostalgia. Definitely recommend, Definitely going to listen to again, and Definitely awaiting and hoping that there's a next one! 😁🤞

It was an easy fun listen

I enjoyed it very much… looking forward to the next one, which is well setup.

Ready for the second one!

Long time fan, can’t wait for the next one!!! Amazing performances by everyone.
Cant believe y’all came together for this!

A wonderful spin off of the original.

I am so happy they found a way to revamp (no pun intended) the Buffyverse in a way that can keep some of the most loved and original characters around. Charisma, James, Anthony the whole gang does an amazing job. The voice acting is phenomenal and the plot is suspenseful and hilarious at the same time. I absolutely love it!
