Volume 4 - 1st printing. A collection of original short stories based on the hit TV series created by Joss Whedon. "I can't be...just a person, I can't be helpless like that...." -- Buffy, "Helpless" At eighteen, each Slayer must face a terrifying trial: the Tento di Cruciamentum. This time-honored, albeit cruel, rite of passage forces each Watcher to drain the Slayer of all her physical powers and then send her to vanquish a powerful vampire using only her wits. When Buffy Summers underwent her Cruciamentum, she managed to defeat Kralik, a vampire who had been committed to a sanitarium as a human for torturing and murdering more than a dozen young women before he was turned. However, not all Slayers have been so cunning. Tales of the Slayer, Vol. 4 chronicles the Cruciamentum of eight earlier Slayers. From Prohibition Chicago to beatnik New York City, from the sideshows of a traveling carnival to a small Irish farm, from the fifteenth century to the twentieth, the Cruciamentum has tested the prowess of Slayers throughout history. Each of them has had to fight: for her job, for the lives of those she loved, and for her own existence.... Hardcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8 1/2-in., 272 pages, Text Only.

1st printing. By Nancy Holder. Buffy and Angel and the return of Jhiera set up a scorching love triangle! Banished to a hellish dimension, the demon Lir discovers he's able to send out his consciousness to inhabit the bodies of others. But, Lir soon learns that he is freezing his host body to death and needs the heat of passion - be it lust, hatred, or anger - to slow down the process. Observing her burning touch, Lir approaches the huntress Jhiera with a deal: Help him thaw his army and he will send them to support her war! But the arrival of a vicious army of demons does not go unnoticed, even to a Slayer who recently returned from the dead, nor can Jiheira's presence in L.A. not draw Angel's attention.
