"A worthy successor to the Slayer stories." —Booklist (starred review for In Every Generation) #1 New York Times best-selling author Kendare Blake returns to New Sunnydale in this sequel to In Every Generation, set in the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Frankie Rosenberg is the world's first slayer-witch, but she doesn't have that slay-life balance figured out just yet. She's still reeling from the deadly explosion at the annual slayer retreat—and new evidence that some slayers may have survived. And while she's defeated her first Big Bad, Frankie soon realizes it was just a warm up act—and bigger, badder forces of evil are only just getting started. The Hellmouth has been reawakened, inter-dimensional portals are opening, and an oracle warns of a new foe on its way: the Darkness. Could this be what attacked the slayers? And is it coming for Frankie?

      The slayer-witch and her Scoobies have more Big Bads to fight in this sequel to In Every Generation (2022). Frankie Rosenberg is getting plenty of experience mixing her witch and slayer powers as more evil pops up (often from graves) in New Sunnydale. Demons of yore, back from Buffy's slaying days, are reappearing in droves, but the fate of Buffy herself after the explosion at slayerfest is still unknown. The Scoobies, a crew comprising teens introduced in the first book as well as some beloved characters from TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, are working on finding out what happened to the missing slayers when an oracle warns them "the darkness is coming." As if that wasn't enough to worry about, everyone is dealing with the ups and downs of romantic entanglements and the pressures of expectations from loved ones. This is clearly a midseries book that relies on knowledge from the previous story and ends with more of a reprieve than a resolution. Still, there's important development of the overarching plot as well as notable character growth that together make for a propulsive read. Like the show, this tale satisfyingly blends humor and lightheartedness with gruesome action, compelling mystery, and a dash of taboo romance. Frankie is cued White; there is some racial diversity and queerness among the Scoobies. A captivating addition to the series that will leave fans clamoring for the next entry. (Paranormal. 14-adult)
