"Now we're supposed to be deciding what we wanna do with our lives and I realised that's what I want to do. Fight evil . . It's a good fight, Buffy, and I want in."
Since the self-proclaimed "science nerd" had the odd luck to fall in with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Willow Rosenberg has come into her own. As a member of the Scooby Gang, Willow used her skills as savvy 'Net girl to help save the world on more than one occasion. But as time passed, Willow's powers evolved from Web surfing to the limitless realm of magic. And with that change came some difficult life lessons.
Willow has longed for more parental guidance, but when Sunnydale's adults are swept up in a witch hunt, Willow finds that her mother's judgment really burns. And who knew that her forays into the black arts would bring her literally face-to-face with an alter ego "Old Reliable" never imagined existed? Ultimately, though, when it comes time to take charge of her future, Willow realises that whether it be as a computer hacker or Wicca extraordinaire, she can go further than she dreamed . . . by staying right where she has been all along.
