The Regional Office is Under Attack!

My first instinct is to compare this book to Peter Clines' [b:Ex-Heroes 16479439 Ex-Heroes (Ex-Heroes, #1) Peter Clines https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1360646185s/16479439.jpg 10753679]. Both books deal with superheroes, and both books use an alternating Then/Now structure to show both the actions of the superheroes and how they became superheroes. But where Clines' novel is an escapist action romp, Gonzales takes the last season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (when they go out and find the other potential slayers) and sets it inside a corporate bureaucracy. The action is too dry for my taste, and the homicidal robot arm, while clearly the best part of the book, isn't given nearly the attention it deserves.
