The graveyard is cold and still. Bright moonlight deepens the shadows. The silence is disturbed by a throaty moan. Breaking through the soft, recently packed earth, a claw extends, sharp and grasping. A sickly sweet stench rises with the corpse. Desperate hunger is etched on it (sic) cadaverous face -  a hunger for your blood!

I've roleplayed for more than 20 years, beginning with MERP, and playing pretty much every game system ever created at least once. When I saw that there was a RPG based on the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer I had to get the rule books, just to see how the creators handled the conversion. Joss Whedon's original ideas for the Buffyverse were somewhat based on H. P. Lovecraft's works, as was my favourite RPG, Call of Cthulhu so I really look forward to exploring this system, and maybe one day playing it. This book is the core rule book, that sets the tone for the entire game system and from what I've seen so far it has an awesome mix of obsessive fandom and humour that will make this a very interesting and entertaining read.
