Slayers and Vampires. The Complete Uncensored, Unauthorized, Oral History of Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Angel

In 1997 the first episode of a new show called Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired. Its fair to say that following the critically panned and commercially unsuccessful film of the same name five years previously, expectations were not high. However over the course of 144 episodes and the successful spin-off show, Angel, it produced some of the best and best-loved television of all time. And its creator Joss Whedons subversive take on supernatural stories has shaped everything from Marvel to Star Wars.
Before Buffy, if a girl and a monster went into an alleyway and there was no boy to save her, only the monster came back out. Buffy changed all that.
Twenty years on, the story of the girl who saved the universe... a lot and the worlds most emotionally complicated vampire is told in Slayers and Vampires by the people who were there.
