Im thinking off the top of my head here, but I think something like the "Clashing Universe Trilogy" would work.

Digiverse is a great word. David if you email Andrew your snail mail address I'll post you a signed copy. They are expected to be available in Ireland in May. Thanks again everyone and to Peny, but no more Avatar Chronicles for now.Conorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05082023138554445835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920806.post-58435928827576594832011-03-05T19:48:36.719-08:002011-03-05T19:48:36.719-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446347770433032970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920806.post-27655796740078731672011-03-05T19:46:53.768-08:002011-03-05T19:46:53.768-08:00Is this a trilogy?

The publishers have gone with Avatar Chronicles, which to be fair does capture the spirit of the series and I guess no one (e.g. the film) has the sole claim on such a useful term as avatar. Thanks for your assistance, I found brainstorming online a lot of fun and definitely something that drew a much wider range of ideas than if the discussion had been limited to the publishers and myself.Conorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05082023138554445835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920806.post-84082733731892552572011-02-18T02:25:44.820-08:002011-02-18T02:25:44.820-08:00Thanks Arthur, the idea of a path is good, especia...Thanks Arthur, the idea of a path is good, especially because Cindella and Ghost go on a huge journey in Edda.

Interesting that ...Great suggestions folks, thanks. Interesting that two of you came up with using the term 'digital', much better than 'virtual', because there is nothing virtual about the Dark Queen and - in Edda - Lord Scanthax.<br />I should explain that the plot of Edda is that a new threat arising from a digital world is a being who has emerged victorious from a MMORPG akin to Age of Empires or some similar resource management/conquest game. Lord Scanthax now has his eyes on Saga.<br />My current favourite is MMORPGs & Monsters, but I don't know what my publishers will make of that.<br />Keep 'em coming!

But i can also see why you would avoid using that title.<br /><br />I was maybe thinking, New Earth trilogy, or something that describes the world they live in.<br /><br />Another idea is something along the lines, that describes the world it takes place in, maybe the Online or Digital Triology. <br /><br />Maybe something that references the worlds colliding, since people in Saga thought that their own world of Saga was real, while it was a game. Maybe "clashing trilogy" Like in that the worlds are clashing with each other.<br /><br />I'm anticipating your pick for the name of the series, it's a tough pick since the world of Epic/Saga is so unique. Whatever you pick i'll be happy with the title.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02093314824850079243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920806.post-87911508417412130032011-02-11T22:41:37.740-08:002011-02-11T22:41:37.740-08:00how about the Digiverse trilogy

My vocabulary isn't a very big one so I cannot really suggest anything. I suppose something like Forerunner as the creators of Epic were dead when it was used like that.

Hopefully I can provide some useful input.<br />I like the sound of 'Avatar Chronicles' but possibly something *like* 'multiverse trilogy' might be better. The word multiverse is good. Although perhaps something taking off of the Dark Queen's explanation of Saga and why it's not less real than Erik's world - 'Nested Worlds trilogy' or some such thing.<br />Lastly, maybe something that references the virtual status of the worlds... Perhaps one of those blended word-style things... 'Virtuality' (virtual/reality)? Hmm. Sounds weird.<br />Hopefully one of those is something you like.Grey280https://www.blogger.com/profile/17152710416955175332noreply@blogger.com
