Two extremes.

In the mood for a Joss Whedon binge, I picked up two books from the library: Fray (comic book collection about a slayer in the future) and Chosen (novelization of Buffy Season 7). Fray is some excellent work; kudos to both Joss for the writing and the art team for bringing his ideas to the page.

Chosen, on the other hand, reads like 700 pages of poorly-written fanfiction. I couldn't even finish the first "episode"; it was so painful. That one's going back to the library unread...
