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.

How far can we go?

Let's find out.

Enjoy!

Ysabel
by Guy Gavriel Kay

An interesting fantasy novel set in Aix en Provence. Two young people, Ned and Kate, inadvertently become involved in a ritual where the past and present, the living and long dead intermingle. Think pagan, think Celt, think curse, think long past battles and murder, think ghosts, think lovers trying to reunite and finally find peace.

There and Back Again

Pat Murphy, on InfiniTy

This is the story of "The Hobbit" re-told as science fiction. It reads well, and it's a lot of fun seeing what she comes up with as parallels for the original.

The Newspaper of Claremont Street

Elizabeth Jolley

on There and Back AgaiN

Elizabeth Jolley lived in the same district as I do - she wrote quirky and very telling novels about ordinary people. I got to know her a little when both her husband and my mother were in the same nursing home - we would sometimes take them out for a 'walk' in their wheelchairs - she was a trifle odd but interesting just the same. Now I think that what I saw as her 'oddness' was really the start of the Alzheimer's disease which she suffered from at the end. Sadly, she herself died in that same nursing home.
