Spike and Dru: Pretty Maids All in a Row (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

Rating:
Summary: What we'll do for love.
Review: Spike and Drucilla are vagabond vampires at this point, at about the start of WWII. Spike decides that he wants to do something special for Drucilla on the eightieth anniversary of her birth into vampirism, so the two embark on a quest to find a magical talisman that will give Dru the ability to see her reflection again. But they must do a little job for the ice demon holding the trinket; kill all the potential slayers, and then do in the slayer of that time. The Watcher's Council gets hold of the plan and tries to stop them, but with little success. I reather liked this book, even though Buffy Summers isn't born yet and Angel is only refered to briefly. But this is a bloody (very bloody) excellent adventure that fans should enjoy. I especially liked Drucilla's characterization, getting in the mind of the lunatic. I really found that to be a treat. And the fact that Spike loves her so is a great counter point to the self serving ego maniac Spike later on.
