New Title

I spent this past weekend at a writer's conference, and had the wonderful opportunity to meet with an agent.

The meeting went really well, and the agent gave me some suggestions. The first thing he said was that I would have an easier time and open myself up to a broader market if I changed my genre from Fantasy to Adventure.

Honestly, this came as something as a relief, because I never felt like my story was really fantasy, but I didn't know how to classify it because of the presence of dragons. Having "permission," in a sense, to be in the "adventure" category despite my dragons, is really exciting for me and opens me up to some of the other things I want to write. Therefore, I'm going to start changing my identity over from a fantasy writer to an adventure writer.

So, one of the main things the agent suggested is changing my title. Currently, my working title for my series is Finding Fantasy, and for my first book is Dying for Dragons.

I need to change my title to something that sounds more like an action/adventure/suspense than a fantasy, but still retain the theme of the series, which is that everything in mythology has a place in history. Here's a short synopsis of my story:


Having just finished her master's degree, Emma Harris is presented with the opportunity to follow her passion of proving that dragons were real animals, not just mythological creatures. In her effort to get the information she wants, she unknowingly makes an enemy of the director of a mysterious organization whose main goal is controlling the flow of information in the world. The director, a person shrouded in secrecy, sends agents to silence Emma at all costs, following her literally to the ends of the earth to keep her discoveries from being made revealed.


So, here's what I've come up with so far for titles.

Series:

Flights of Fancy
Flights of Fantasy (I like this one but it still has the element of of fantasy that I'm trying to get away from)
History Hacker (My main problem with this one is that it will be taken as a computer story)
Mythology Marauder (This one is probably my favorite)

Book:

Crypto Conspiracy (That's the only thing I've come up with for this one)

Obviously, I like alliteration, but I am open to other suggestions. So, please tell me what you think of these, what you like or don't like, what you'd pick up in a bookstore, or if you have another title you would suggest that reflects the themes and ideas I'm trying to accomplish. And please come back to see others' suggestions, and give me your input on those!

Thanks for your help!
