The Faith Trials: Volume 1
(Part of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Novelizations (#10) Series and Buffy - Im Bann der Dämonen (#34) Series)
A Slayer's life is simple. Want... Take... Have. A gripping novelisation of three key episodes featuring Faith, the bad Slayer. Sometimes it's gotta be a drag to be the Chosen One. There are times when a girl would rather be at the mall, talking on the phone, or even doing homework than saving the world from unstoppable evil. Fortunately, Buffy Summers has always had a support system of friends, family and a father-figure Watcher to help her cope. But what if she hadn't? She might have been just like Faith. Faith, the 'shadow-self' Slayer, is strong, sexy and willful. When she first arrives in Sunnydale, Watcherless and fancy-free, Buffy has doubts about tag-team patrol. As time goes on, though, she learns to find the fun in synchronised slayage, and appreciates Faith's zest for life... until Faith's impulsive approach to her calling takes her one step too far... and her inability to cope with the consequences eventually pushes her over the edge.

If you are a Faith fan, buy this. It explains how she feels troughout the book, covering her first 4 episodes. The only tiny critisism is that I wished it showed more of Faith's point of view. In the middle of the book are glossy pictures. A great buy.
five by five book!

I must say that I loved this book. It was great to have an entire book dedicated to the wild slayer named Faith. Even though the cover says "Faith, Hope, and Trick," "Bad Girls," "Enemies," and "Consequences," it has "Revelations" instead of "Enemies." Either way, the book still would have been a great read. In "Faith, Hope, and Trick," Faith, the new slayer is introduced and Buffy becomes a little jealous. In "Revelations," Faith gets a new watcher who seems much like a watcher, only to find she has a secret plan of her own. "Bad Girls" is where Faith starts closely moving to the dark side by accidentally mistaking a human for a vampire and killin him, only to have no remorse. "Consequences" is about both Faith and Buffy dealing with the death of the Deputy Mayor...even though they each have a different way of going about it. Overall, it is a great book and a must-have for any Buffy fan.

I love this book and I hope and pray that the author makes another book and makes it become a series because then that would be my favorite series because I love Faith and I love reading about her and she deserves her own Trials!!

This book collects four of the best Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes that feature Faith, the rogue vampire slayer. The character is introduced in Faith, Hope and Trick. She is a sexy, sassy slayer on the run. She is a person who has always lived on the edge. She loves slaying and the power that comes with the slayer strength. In Bad Girls Faith introduces Buffy to the "See, Want, Take" principle. Their reckless behavior results in the death of a human. Faith's solution is to blame Buffy in Consequences. When the plan backfires the council steps in and drives Faith to the dark side. Faith, working for the mayor, tries to steal Angel's soul by giving him that one moment of happiness in Enemies. James Laurence weaves a nice back-story to tie the four episodes together. I enjoyed reading the book even though I have seen the episodes. Also I think that readers who have not seen the TV series would enjoy these four tales of power and corruption.
