I just finished writing a book, and I am outta ideas for a good title...

I thought about calling it Event Horizon, but a movie (a very bad movie) with the same name came out years ago... anybody got any ideas of a title having to do with a black hole?

thank you :smile:

Fredirick Pohl had a book called "Beyond the Blue Event Horizon" so you can't use that. The plot driver in that one was the difference between the local coordinates and the remote coodinates for someone falling toward the horizon.

How does the black hole figure in the book? Coming up with an appropriate title is a lot easier if we know that.
 
"The Shell of Never"
 
"The Hidden Heart"

"Light's End" [or "Lichtsende"]

"Michell's Fever-Dream"

"The Mouth of Night"

"Hawking's Harrow"

"SSSSSHHHHLLLLUUUUUUUURRRRRP!" :smile:
 
Suckers from Outer Space.
 
Singular Dilema

Bent Rubicon

Spaghetification Sucks
 
'Rodin's Masterpiece'

Rodin's masterpiece is a sculpture entitled 'The Gates of Hell' A picture of it would look really cool on the cover, too.
