title help - maybe - Auskar - 09-27-2007 All but two Repairman Jack novels have has one-word titles. The titles of Repairman Jack novels don't immediately make the purchaser aware of what the novel is actually about (other than the statement "A Repairman Jack Novel"). In other words, the titles seem somewhat ambiguous at first. Forged That's ambiguous. It could refer to forgeries or the sword's metal begin forged by a blacksmith, which is what the Repairman Jack novels are all about anyway, forging Jack into a hero. title help - maybe - KRW - 09-27-2007 How about "Over the Edge". It's at least in line with "All the Rage". title help - maybe - KRW - 09-27-2007 "Cuts like a Knife" "The Cut Runs Deep" "Better Than A Ginsu" title help - maybe - cobalt - 09-27-2007 If the sword is evil.............Black Blade. If the sword is to be used for good........Sword of Light. Of course the "tenants" might have had a hand in things.........Magical Edge or Magically Made title help - maybe - KRW - 09-27-2007 "Cut to the Chase" "Backslash" title help - maybe - KRW - 09-27-2007 "Severed History" "Cutback" "Blade Divided" title help - maybe - Blake - 09-27-2007 "Cuts" Oh, wait...

Shake things up a bit. Anyway, assuming the plot could go any which way: The Sword Path The Forever Blade Double-Edged Cut Across Severed Devil's Blade Savior's Sword Or, if you're willing to lower yourself to a pun: "Heir Cut" title help - maybe - GeraldRice - 09-28-2007 How about "Double Edges" or just "Edges"? I was going to suggest "The Edge" but Ken pretty much cornered that one with "Edge". |
