I'm torn on the new series name! Also, sneak preview of the first cover. Enjoy!*Cover not final

A Blurb was requested so let me do my best. I usually write blurbs after the fact :pRayden an engineer at a private space company yearns for the stars but his heart condition stopped him and unfortunately, his life short of his dream.Yet, he's been given a second chance, waking up in the body of a man in the far flung future, Rayden can't help but reach for the stars. Though it's not going to be that easy since he's practically a prisoner in his own home.Getting off planet is all he can think of and even once he manages to make it, it's on a ship that was supposed to be quarantined. Unbeknownst to him, Ray starts his journey off to the stars with one of the most dangerous organisms in the universe along for the ride.

Can we get a chapter or two before picking the name? Or a blurb?

Steven Polanco

"You Only Live Twice" reminds me of that one VallJacobs book

Benjamin McNair

Escaping Gravity just cause You Only Live Twice puts it too close to Returner’s Defiance for me.

Only live twice has a bond theme to it while escaping gravity makes me think of songs and more light hearted. So depends on what you're going for. Bond, cheeky type with lots of action then the first one. More funny/light hearted then the second.

Bruce_Sentar

Give me a minute! Edit: 10 minutes apparently. Blurb added.

Michael Bennett

Escaping Gravity makes me think of broadway musicals

Awesomesauce Inc

Escaping Gravity really just feeeeels so epic. You only live twice sounds cookie cutter.

Terry Hill

I mean, he gave you 2 mins based on the Time stamp

Austin Wolf

Nice cover if it does end up working out

NerdGinger

Wait, have these chapters been put out or is this just a title inquiry

Tyler

I mean escaping gravity does fit with the space theme but without any summary or hint its hard to say which name fits better.

Andre

You only live twice is a James Bond movie. Think that would leave some people confused

RunnerRunner

You only live twice is a bond movie right?

Frank R

Escaping Gravity is more original of the two

Coriver91

Escaping gravity gets my vote

Detectivetrap23

You only live twice is a cool name, but it doesn’t convey anything about the space aspect of space series. Escaping gravity has my vote

JamzHigate

I like the Escaping Gravity. If it comes down to a split. Gravity Shatter or Gravity Thrust might be a some options if the way the ship is powered is a gravity drive.

Stephen

Both are good!

DARRELL

Tons of stories have used the same titles. It is hardly a new concept.

Andre

That's true but still when I read it, my first thought was James Bond.

Jamie R

Both are good names, but in the end, there's one that draws better than the other! Loving the cover though! And the blurb sounds good!

Neorandomizer

first one is a James Bond movie name, the one after Thunderball.

Ark

This cover is fucking amazing

Johnny Starfrost

That’s probably why I love it so much lol.

Johnny Starfrost

If Escape Gravity wins, it’s probably better to say “Escape from the Gravity!” Or whatever they used for those old school sci-fi movies/novels.

MrCynical

Escape velocity is the term for speed needed to escape a planets gravity.

Dutch Palmer

Escape Velocity or Defying Gravity sound snappier

David Morrissey

You only life twice brings James Bond to mind. Rather a destination

AWKW1ZARD

You only live once... more? YOLOM!

Nukin Futs

Escaping Gravity has a more sci-fi feel - esp. since it could have multiple meanings. Though depending on the emphasis YoLT has many more. Either way - it will be read

ALightOTW

Escaping Gravity looks better on the cover.
