Hello!

As you may already know, I have been writing a fiction series with science-fiction and fantasy components. I am about to launch a website for it, but I still have some hard decisions to make.

The first one is how to call the series. I have been refering to it as The Necromancer Series but I don't know how good that is for English speaker's ears. Maybe Tales of the Necromancer sounds better.

In a nutshell, the series follows the story of a man who finds himself gifted with ultimate power over Life and Death. My work tells of his adventures throught History, from ancient times where bronze swords were considered the apex of military tech, to the far future where they mess with Higg's field in order to wipe galaxies.

Any suggestions for naming the series are welcome. Specially since I have to purchase a domain name for it :-)

First off, I applaud you for actually putting pen to paper and doing real writing. It's something I wish I had the patience for.

I googled around real quick and "Tale of the Necromancer" looks like it's already taken. Some books by Striegal Matthew. Also Chronicles of the Necromancer, and just "The Necromancer" are all taken.

I would suggest something that gets to the heart of your character. How does he use this power? Does he help or hurt or both? Are there others like him? Does he have an ultimate goal? Does he abuse or is he responsible with this power? Perhaps that might bring some new titles to mind.

it should be about jack wimble, a former cop but now a private dic who uses his necromancy skills to solve his cases. also his girlfriend is undead. he comes
from a long line of necromancers.

if anybody steals my idea i will sue you into oblivion

Not exactly the sort of thing I had in mind, but I put it down in the list of candidates.

Thanks for the tips.

The Necromancer's behavior changes quite a bit throughout the series, mainly because he increases in power the older he gets, yet still he has to witness humanity making the same mistakes over and over again. So the idea is there is a bit of burnout.

By the final segment of the series there will be people worshiping him as a death god, but I don't really want to name the series after the fact because there is a lot that happens earlier.

hmmmm...

being a necromancer also helps jack wimble's job greatly when it's a murder mystery. usually he can revive the guy and ask him who killed him.

Reminds me of the TV series Pushing Daisies from 10 years ago. Main
character can bring back dead, has dead girlfriend and works for forensics solving murders.

Sounds interesting. Is it light hearted or a satire? Maybe something like Jack Wimble: Zombie Detective. Zombies are hot these days....
