| | | | | Original title is the best. It says it all. Chronicles of Ikros is a story about more than just one guy (garalt). It's about what happens to an entire country. So it's perfectly named. Don't change it. e. (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | I think, personally, that the Chronicles of Ikros is a perfictly fine name. You left out C.S. Lewises Chronicles of Narnia, another succsesful fantasy line. Besides, it stands out in that it is different then the others. so thers just my 2 cents ( (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | Hey Anthony, Here is my two bits worth. It seems to me that the title depends on the age of the audience you are going after. Based on the length of your book I think that the young adult market (13-17 or so) would be best. If that is the case then (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.castle)

|
| | | | | Anthony, I agree with many others here in feeling that "The Chronicles of Ikros" is a superb title that should not be changed. It is a terrific way to describe a long series of stories. However, I think a subtitle is a perfect way to denote separate (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | The name you choose will hardly be relevant if you actually get a contract, as the publisher is likely to force a crappy name on you anyway. That said, a spiffy name might help you *get* that contract. I don't know. I really doubt that "Chronicles (...) (22 years ago, 30-Dec-02, to lugnet.castle)
