The Eliza Dushku exclusive interview is a real bonus for Faith stans, and the praise quotes from the Buffy Studies academic community (yes, that's a real thing, and yes, it's called Slayage) give this serious credibility. If you're building a Buffyverse shelf, this is the one that makes it look like you actually think about what you watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed paperback — shows normal wear consistent with its age.
