 Welcome to:

Title Mania!

Title Mania is a simple game which should be a lot of fun! NO peeking at titles and authors, this brain teaser is intended to rack the old grey cells: entirely from  your own memory!

Simply give the title of a book which begins with the last letter of the title before it: *

Ex:  The Good Earth
Answer:How Green  Was My Valley.
Next: A book title which starts with Y


* We'll ignore A, An, and The in titles for this game.
** You may choose to IGNORE any title ending in  S E X Y and Z
*** You may ignore numbers  and take the next letter back..


How far can we go?

Let's find out.

Enjoy!

"Silver on the Tree" is the last of a 5 book series of children's stories dealing with the fight of good vs evil, heavily influenced by Welsh mythology, British history, standard magic, etc.  They're quite good; I read them with pleasure as an adult when my children read them.
