Fearless
Angel series
By Doranna Durgin 

     Angel Investigations come around from a daze, all covered in blood, and cannot remember what they have been doing. Obviously there must have been a fight, but there are no wounds, and subsequent experiments prove that they all seem to have acquired superhuman healing powers. All except Angel, who ought to already have them, but appears to have lost his! When a strange creature looking like Yoda turns up and tells Angel what has happened, he is reduced to keeping it all a secret, for his human companions love having these new powers, even if they do come with some odd side effects…

     Buffy & Angel novels are usually packed with action, wit, and inventive situations, but this one seems to be a little thin on all three counts. There isn't quite enough of a story and what there is tends to be repetitive, as is the dialogue. More plot strands would have been a good plan, also a bit more suspense. However, it is interesting to see how the characters react to the situation and ponder on what the topsy-turvy role reversal is doing for them. It is a neat idea, but just not quite up to the usual standard.
