Title The Third...

Tis I, the queen of indecisiveness with another potential title, which, I think has finally got the balance between spy and kickass with a few hints of the...yeah, OK, I'm waffling BS now aren't I... *sigh*

Title: Shadow Games

Provided this has no unfortunate short, squat bad Martial Artist connotations, I think this is it.

Can anyone see a problem here?

I kinda liked 'Identity' - but it really depends on what your story's like. 'Shadow Games' certainly has more action/thriller connotations, plus an air of mystery. The only previous uses of it I could find are an obscure sword and scorcery novel and an obscure RPG game.

So - sounds good to me.

Obscure is good.

Identity does play to the heart of one of the plot strands, and I think if I was just writing for posting at Fictionpress, with no aspiration of publication, I might have gone with it. But, it didn't totally sit right with the idea of selling the book as an action/thriller sort of thing (please hit me if I start sounding like an Aaaaaateeeeest!)

And, by not using it this time, if/as/when I write book 2, Identity is still a viable title :)
