The Deathless is an original novel based on the U.S. television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Plot summary Continuity * Set after "The Zeppo" but before "Bad Girls". According to the author, "At the end of "The Zeppo," Giles and Willow are injured, but in "Bad Girls" they're all better. Since neither of them have the super-healing powers of vampires and Slayers, it has to be several weeks between those two episodes, so it's the perfect spot to place a novel-length adventure -- with the added bonus that I get to use Faith as a good guy." Canonical issues Buffy novels, such as this one are not considered by most fans as part of canon. They are usually not considered as official Buffyverse reality, but are novels from the authors' imaginations. However unlike fanfic, 'overviews' summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially Buffy merchandise.
