|    Re: worst story title    |

      From: mdhangton@gmail.com              Why I ask this, is that I noticed an audiobook of a novel in public library       that said _The Quest_ on the spine of the box. Cover blurb told me it is       Ancient Egypt with a sorcerer as POV character.              Alas! This author has used an exotic setting with exotic POV character and       all he can come up with is _The Quest_.              I thought this is worst title possible, because any fiction could be titled       "The Quest" or "The Journey." In theory, all story characters have a       journey. Such is how my mind works.              Mais oui, all of the titles y'all have provided thus far suck bigtime also.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
