    which title do you think sounds better out of these.

    Dark Path
    Dark Purge
    The Next Purge
    Dark Destiny
    Dark by Nature
    Dark Malice
    Malice Journy
    Malice Destiny

    the story is of a very well known Jedi (not Kyp so everyone dont start screaming that) turning evil and creating the next purge

    I like the sound of "Dark Destiny." I also like the final option, although "Malicious Destiny" might work better (using an adjective instead of having two nouns there).

    Dark Destiny is good, but I actually like the sound of Dark by Nature

    Here's my honest truth:

    The names are good, but I really think they're too cliché. I mean, almost every fic and its brother have the name "Dark ______" or something like that. Try becomng inventive, and use a Thesaurus to come up with really original (and tres cool) sounding names.

    Hope that helps! :D

    While I do agree with Miana Kenobi, there are a lot of stories with the title "Dark Something", they do still work. I don't think they are too cliché just yet.

    Anyway, of the titles you mentioned I prefer Dark Purge. Because while Dark Destiny is neat, putting Dark together with Destiny might be stepping a little to close to the cliché border.

    I like Dark Destiny as well, but I must agree with the others who have said that it is a bit cliche.

    I'd use Dark Journey myself, but unfortunately that's already the name of one of the books.

    It would help if we knew who the main character is, so that The title can more closely fit what happens in the story.

    Darkness Rising
    In the Shadow of Evil
    Shadows of Evil
    Sins of Our Grandfathers (I'm assuming this is one of the solo kids)
    Darkside's Curse
    Darkside's Bane
    Bane of the Jedi
    Curse of the Jedi
    Darkside's Scourge
    Scourge of the Jedi
    Fallen Knight
    Apprentice (or Knight) of the Fallen (Angel)
    Apprentice (or Knight) of Darkness
    Apprentice (or Knight) of Evil


    And yes the Thesaurus is our friend. So use it often and be sure to have a dictionary nearby if you dont understand a word or how to use it.

    Because they are just as popular as Kyp or any other Jedi. ;)

    It might help if you told us who this Jedi was?
