Product Description

PASSPORT TO HELL

Buffy, Oz, and Angel are Europe-bound, only they're not flying any airlines. They're traveling limbo's "ghost roads" in search of Jacques Regnier. Jacques is the sole heir of the dying Gatekeeper whose Boston mansion is the supernatural barrier restraining thousands of the world's monsters. The evil Sons of Entropy will do anything to destroy the gate -- even if it means trading the power-laden Spear of Longinus to the wicked vampires holding Jacques.

Back home, the ghost ship Flying Dutchman has set sail for Sunnydale, determined to shanghai new crewmen -- dead or alive. For Willow, Xander, Cordelia, and Giles, it's an ocean of trouble, especially when the monstrous Kraken reemerges with a vengeance.

But everyone's assistance will be needed once Buffy locates Jacques, and uncovers the shocking plans the Sons of Entropy have already placed in motion -- a plan that, if successful, will destroy the world and create a horrible new realm ruled by monsters.

3.0 out of 5 stars run, buffy, run!, April 5 2004
By A Customer
Ghost Roads is a heck of a lot better than Out of the Madhouse- there are actual conversations in this novel & not just a bunch of action sequences piled up on one another.

The plot gets more interesting as Oz, Angel & Buffy follow the ghost roads in search of the heir to the Gatekeeper. Willow, Giles, Cordelia & Xander try to keep things in check back home in Sunnydale. Of course, the Sons of Entropy are out in full force & as a refreshing change of pace Spike & Dru are thrown into the mix.

Typical of the Buffy books, this one is fast & easy to read & 100% avoidable if you haven't seen every episode of Buffy a gazillion times already. I only read them because I'm Buffy deprived- purely a guilty pleasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars an excellent part for a great trilogy, Sep 1 2002
By heather s (the bronx) - See all my reviews
The Buffy books aimed for adults have always been good and this trilogy is no exception. If you are a fan of the show, you will appreciate how authentic the story line is. Nancy Holder does it again and truly captures buffy and the gang in full action. You cannot stop reading until you have finished all 3 books. Please start with the first book ,"Out of the Madhouse" and continue the books in order. (Ghostroads is book #2) The story will make sense and i promise that you will be fully satisfied at the end. I only wish that this and other buffy books had a chance to be added as shows for the tv series!

4.0 out of 5 stars An essential book for your BtVS library!, Nov 25 2001
"Ghost Roads" is the second installment in one of the best BtVS trilogies out there, "The Gatekeeper Trilogy". Set in early season 3 of BtVS, this book makes use of all the Scoobs (OMG! Even XANDER! How crazy is that?!?), introduces new villains and heroes (like the Gatekeeper and Il Maestro) and brings back old favorites (Spike and Dru, back when Spike was HER lapdog instead of Buffy's). The Scoobs split into two teams to try and stop Il Maestro from bringing forth choas with parallel storylines that eventually interwine at the climax and then leave you hanging. Although a bit boring and slow-paced at first, "Ghost Roads" quickly takes off in the middle with Giles, Xander, Oz and yes, even Joyce getting into tons of wacky misadventures. A must have even for a so-so BtVS fan.
