Buffy and Angel must pool their resources and fight side by side to prevent the loss of scores of innocent lives -- even if the lives at stake are not exactly human. When Angel first came to Los Angeles, it was the fast-talking, half-demon Irish-American Doyle who first explained to him the mission for which he was destined: the saving of lost souls. All the more ironic, then, that Doyle himself was the one Angel couldn't save. Reconciled at last to the heritage he had long denied, Doyle sacrificed his life to save a shipload of helpless, peaceable demons from a Nazi-style extermination crew. But Doyle's legacy lies not only in the gift of visions he bequeathed to Cordelia with their one and only kiss. Unaware of their danger, Angel and co. are unprepared for the visitor at their door. Intending to free him from what he sees as the human taint that has always held him back, Doyle's demon father, Axtius, is none too pleased to find instead that his wayward son is dead. Meantime in Sunnydale someone apart from the Slayer is slaying. The victims, strangely, all appear to be human-demon half-breeds. The trail leads Buffy to Los Angeles, where before long she and Angel find themselves in the front line to stop an avenging fury from wholesale slaughter...

Review:
It's always good to see Angel and Buffy back together on screen or in print and in Monster Island they find themselves facing ghosts from Angel's past and a mysterious killer who is slaying human-demon hybrids. Doyle was part of Angel's original team when he first set up camp in Los Angeles, but Doyle gave his life to save others and left Cordelia the power to see the future in visions. Now Doyle's father has turned up and he is none too pleased to discover that his son is dead. In Sunnydale, Buffy is tracking the party responsible for a spate of murders of half-human, half-demon breeds and it's a trail that leads right to her ex-lover's door in LA. Now Buffy and Angel find themselves teamed up to stop a full-scale massacre being played out on a vengeful scale.

Golden and Sniegoski have already plenty of experience penning Buffy and Angel's book-based adventures and their collaboration is a top-notch effort of slam bang action and great, snappy dialogue that perfectly captures the mood and zest of the TV shows. The plot is rather thin, however, and seems quite stretched at times with scenes and threads that simply pad out the story rather than add to it or push the narrative along. Fans however will be totally thrilled to see their favourite doomed lovers fighting together again, and the continuation of the long-defunct Doyle story line (the character seems to have been forgotten about in the TV show) is a nice addition for die-hard fans. It's a little too long but it moves along faster than a flying stake and has more bite than most of the Buffy and Angel team-up novels that have gone before. --Jon Snow
